    4.10 Re-gearing - 2025

    I honestly thought Dana quit making the 4.10 gears many years ago. Figured Yukon just bought up whatever was left. I have no plans of buying another Liberty, but many years ago, I for some reason bought two sets of 4.10's for the front diff. You should take pics of stuff like that. I think I...

    Right rear shock making a strange noise

    Back in the day, it was a common issue that aftermarket shocks had a slightly shorter sleeve. The fix was to over tighten the bolt...

    Front differential help

    Doesn't mean much, but I've never heard of that happening on a KJ. Gotta wonder if it was damaged at the junk yard. On good ol steel diff's, Ive seen people just run a weld around the tube. No clue how you would fixed a pressed in aluminum diff tube.

    Are you certain that water isnt getting in the housing?

    Transmission oil cooler size

    I always measure what came out to get an idea of what should go back in. Then check the level after driving it. Idk what an Lt is, but mine normally takes around 4-5 quarts.

    ABS/Traction Control disables on low traction surfaces

    Its tough to diagnose anything over the internet... First step would be putting a scanner on it and seeing if all wheel speed sensors are showing up. Could also check that the module is getting good power and grounds. Maybe when the motor kicks in, the voltage is dropping too low, causing it to...

    Heavy duty rear coils

    Putting 500lbs on the hitch is going to make the front end feel super light. With that, I would recommend using air lift air bags as opposed to different coil springs.

    Weird 4x4 issue

    I wasnt aware that they had sycro's. Im seeing that early 231's did, but Im not sure if these do. Im not sure why they would need sycro's. Everything should be spinning at the same speed, given youre not doing what your friend did.

    Weird 4x4 issue

    Im assuming its not always been like this? Ive found that all tcases will shift better if you are rolling 2-3mph in N. They normally always pop right in. Its tough to get them to shift when youre stopped.

    OME VS Bilstein

    Ive never tried Bilsteins on a KJ but I do have them on my ZJ's. No clue if they are similar to the shocks for the KJ, but my ZJ's definitely have a more sporty ride than my KJ with the OME shocks. Kinda comparing apples to oranges with the IFS though.

    Yeah, with the way things are now days, I wouldn't hesitate to replace a head... Then again, I would just replace the head no matter what. Im not getting rid of my KJ.

    Water actually down in the cylinder? Or just around the spark plug? Are you losing coolant? I've only been around one bad head gasket on a 4.7 and it only causes misfires when its first started. Its been leaking for around 15 years, still running.

    No codes? If it were a misfire, I imagine it would throw a code.

    CJC Transmission pan

    I too have installed the PML pan and am happy with it. It DOES NOT have internal cooling fins, but it does seem to lower the trans temps. Unfortunately I used RTV to install it, I didnt know about the gasket. No leaks though.

    Can you mount factory skid plates on a Liberty that didn't come with them?

    No, they are not removeable. You can buy a nutsert tool that makes quick work of installing them. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003TODXQW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

    Front differential crush washer/pinion nut torque 500 ft/lbs??

    That cannot be correct. I installed 4.10's in my front diff and did not get anywhere near that. Pretty sure I recall torqueing to 160 then torquing in 5lb increments till the play was gone. Then I torqued till I got the desired rotating torque. Gotta be a typo.

    Power Steering Issue

    Yes, the cooler is on the return (low pressure) side.

    Drive wheels

    You'll be stuck spinning the rear wheels in full time with chains on the front. Full time is really only useful when the roads are partly covered in snow or its raining. If the roads are completely snow covered, I suppose it doesn't matter where the chains are, but use part time.
