What did you do to your jeep today?

[Vfajardo1]

Wow lifted and still had stock OEM shocks in the rear ?

Only the front is lifted, the rear I left at regular height since I liked the look better lol.

Really ? OK
in all my years never heard, seen or even wondered that
What lift in front then ?

 

[tommudd]

Well the 03 got jealous since I had another KJ in the shop.
Headlight bulb on right side burnt out
Phillips Xtreme Vision to the rescue

Since it leveled it out that’s mainly why, also I don’t like the rear higher than the front. The front itself is a cheap 2.5” spacer lift, I didn’t intend to do much with the jeep to begin with just more as a second vehicle for the weekends but it grew on me. I’m looking to get heavy duty emu springs when the funds allow, but that May be a while after replacing the starter, Ac pump and rear shocks all this month ‍♂. Soon though hopefully

Got everything running..have heat! Drove it around the block and shut it down. Went to start it and the starter died. I paid my mechanic to fix that one..I was spent after the cooling system, heater core and AC core. Getting rocker patches welded on now and started on the new upholstery.

Noticed the coolant bottle was empty, so filled it up with Zerex G05 HOAT. Hmmmm. Radiator is brand new, and was not low on coolant itself, thankfully. Water pump might have a small leak? I’m going to keep an eye on this and try and figure out where the leak is.

If a spacer lift ( sorry ) sat it level, then front springs must be stacked then

They like your attention daily it seems

Yeah, my Jeep has been a bit of a diva lately. Probably upset I haven’t installed the new fuel tank skid yet.

 

[lfhoward]

I keep records of all the maintenance I do, and was looking back. Last coolant leak and new water pump was about 4 years ago. I thought it would be interesting to paste in what 10 years of maintenance and mods looks like, LOL.

bought on Amazon a while back, cheaper than Rockauto

Got the Bilstein suspension into wifey's Liberty today. No lift, but looks sharp. We've decided that Bert Mk.2 Mod.3 will be a flip. As much as I hate to admit it, but the low mpg is an issue for her as she works on the other end of the metro area. We've less than 2 grand into it including purchase price and she really wants one of the Subaru station wagon thingies like her friend drives. So, she will drive it for the winter and stop stealing Bert the ScienceMobile.

All I need snow is some garbage weather so I can teach her how to properly use 4wd over in the high school parking lot.

Bits and pieces of my twin battery/solar mod finally started showing up today. Shipping is so sc.rew.y right now- this is stuff I ordered back in August. Bert's lift is starting to settle in- my bu.tt can feel the difference even though it still feels like it is gonna tip over when I turn.

Drive over to Cleveland. We have garbage weather to spare. You can have all you want!

This is my second post ever but this forum has helped me a lot with both my Liberties (03 Renegade) anytime I need information I come straight here or YouTube. Thank you guys for helping me to keep on wrenching on my Liberty. I recently replaced the clutch master cylinder and clutch ***** cylinder which are integrated together has one pre-bleed unit. I was so happy that the 07 Liberty was back and running that I decide to change the rear rotors and brake pads. Autozone didn’t have coated rotors so I primed them myself for quick protection against rust, the pads were the gold pack from autozone also but they work just fine.

We put 340 miles on the jeep yesterday to bring the pup down to an eye specialist for a cat scratch. The drive down too 4.5 hours due to weather and people who don't know how to drive in said weather. I mostly drove in 4x4 with speeds varying from 30-70mph. For the 8 hours we were down there, the jeep was either idling or going stoplight to stoplight. The drive home was clear and only took 3.5 hours. We averaged 17mpg for the whole trip.

 

[sota]

what's the word on the pup?
