    wheel backspacing

    here is the comparison between the tires, My worry is that if the backspacing pushes it in, the tires from the kj will be too wide to fit or rub alot when turning

    wheel backspacing

    This is the new jeep, the rims it has on suck and the tires aren't verry aggressive trim, the difference would be going from a 29 inch to 31 inch, so not without a lift, but I'm mostly worried about the backspacing and if the wheels will be pushed in or out compared to the stock 5.25 inch...

    wheel backspacing

    What is the stock backspacing on the stock wheels for the liberty? Also if anyone has tried to fit stock wheels from a liberty onto a XJ I'd like that input as well, I'm trying to figure out if I'll be able to salvage my newish tires from the liberty and put them onto my next rig(most likely XJ)...

    Knocking Noise and Metal in Oil

    Yeah I'll have to decide if im gonna do that because my other option is to just buy another jeep with the same money, the other main issue is I'm so early in my schooling that the ability for me to do a full engine rebuild is under question right now. Even if we do end up scrapping it I know I'm...

    Knocking Noise and Metal in Oil

    That sounds like it could be the issue, only big thing is how would metal get into the oil that way? It wasn't just sparkly a bit it was sparkly alot with some decent chunks in the filter

    Knocking Noise and Metal in Oil

    Yeah, my issue is I'm doing the work at my school and they want me to have parts ready before I start which is an issue, the other thing is we did some listening(screwdriver method) and you cannot hear the noise from under the valve cover or in the heads and it is coming from somewhere below the...

    Knocking Noise and Metal in Oil

    The knock was also accompanied by a constant misfire on cylinder 6, it's been doing it for a bit just from the head gasket, but now it is constant(flashing engine light)

    Knocking Noise and Metal in Oil

    Right now it sounds like the end of my liberty and it is most likely gonna end up being parted out, but I'm open to any thoughts/ideas but with how much work this suddenly turned into, it seems like a stretch.

    Knocking Noise and Metal in Oil

    Well right after I started ordering parts and getting ready to fix my jeep it started having a random knock. There isn't any rhythm to the knock but it is there (https://photos.app.goo.gl/dUmFBhvaNWBpRs1dA) video clip if it works, it's the loud knock that happens occasionally. Once that happened...

    Fender flares

    If you look on youtube you can find people who install the fender flares from a wrangler onto their liberty, there is also the option of the renegade trim fender flares if you can find them.

    Rear sway bar

    I mean I'd assume so, probably would depend, that's why I'm making sure it doesn't make the car completely unstable

    Is this the end of Liberty?

    This is what the inside of some of my pistons look like for reference about the head gasket, I have a leak, and am getting the white smoke out of the tailpipe which is the coolant being burned/evaporated and pushed out the exhaust. I don't have the oil and coolant mixing which is just a matter...

    Rear sway bar

    have you had any situations where it got a little hairy because you don't have the rear swaybar? That's really my only worry is that I take it out and then something dumb happens and I lose control.

    Top end rebuild parts

    ok, my timing cover gasket is leaking oil so I will end up having it off anyway I'll have to see if I end up needing to replace the gears/chain from the timing cover once I get it off

    Rear bump stops

    ok, hocky pucks it is lol, should be interesting, maybe i'll color match the the new upper bump stops for some reason amazon only sells bright orange ones lol, I lost them after hitting a puddle too hard and haven't had any bump stops for the past 6 months.

    Rear sway bar

    Should I bother to keep my sway bar around in the rear once I lift my jeep? I've heard that you shouldn't run disconnects on the front(if this is wrong let me know), I've also heard that the rear swaybar isn't doing much, is it advisable to keep the rear swaybar or will it be fine without one?

    How to adjust Iron Rock Offroad control arms

    I am going to be installing IRO control arms with my new lift kit and am wondering how you adjust the control arms, and how do I tell where to correctly adjust them too? I haven't order the parts yet so I'm unsure if the instructions in the box will include this information or not.
