What did you do to your jeep today?

[CherokeeLiberty]

I almost got stuck in a foot of slush yesterday. I pulled the fun lever, dropped to first gear, and then throttled out. That’s what happens when you have 3ft of snow everywhere and you have two days in a row of 50F weather

Saw a good looking KK Liberty with only 125K on it today for sale for $2000. The “engine’s blown” according to the ad. He also says it “just shut down going down the highway” which to me does not sound like a blown engine. I wonder what the engine sounds like when run and what the trouble codes actually are! Now if it wasn’t so far away and I had someplace to work on it…

Could be a great deal, buy it and over time fix it up as a backup

 

[lfhoward]

Could be. It is more of a thought experiment than something I could actually pull off. I have no place to fix up a Jeep (no driveway, I park on the street), and this supposedly dead Jeep is more than 4 hours away. If it was closer I would go see it and bring my code reader.

I have thought that a second Liberty would be good to have. My god-daughters are just old enough to be getting their learners permits and soon their drivers licenses, as well as wanting to get their first jobs. A Liberty is a good safe vehicle that I would feel comfortable letting them drive to work (eventually), and because of my experience with my KK, I would know how to fix and maintain another one. I would probably have to start with one that actually runs, though! LOL

Colt at BleepinJeep just bought an 03 Liberty today. Love the ending on this one.

Swapped the rear gate handles (crusty microswitch) , air filter, and box between parts jeep and Bluebert. Looking at the ac tomorrow, then I'll be ready to offer it up to the vultures. Looked through the engine parts in the back and found a random brake pad and a water pump from something else, but no heads. Only one camshaft and one exhaust manifold. Does anyone know if the cats are the same between the 4x4 and 2x4 models?

Ran the wiring for the new antennas and radio mast yesterday.

well since this **** hasn't gotten back to me about seeing a car I want to look at, I guess I should tear in to the driver's rear door again.
windows doesn't roll all the way down, and it sounds like it's trying to force it too high up at the top.

Ahh the fun of the broken regulator clips.

Wifey sold her Liberty today. She got 7200$ for it...About 3 times what we paid for it and put into it. Then went and put a nice down payment on the Forrester she has wanted so badly. Guess I gotta learn how to upgrade them now too. Gonna seriously cut into my VW rebuild time and my Bertin' time. Dang it.

Great video and as you pointed out, a great finale.

I get to buy more tools!
need a set of offset wrenches. getting the flex plate bolts detached from the clutch was a pain without them. installation will be stupid. so, i'm buying something I don't have, yet.

I made a side quest. Once I was off pavement I didn’t see anyone for the entire twenty miles.

I replaced the socket for radio antenna (I don't use it) with a weatherproof 12V socket

That.... is interesting.
Tell me, did you have to make any body/panel/structural changes? Is it reversable?

Yes, it's reversable, just plug and play, the 12V socket has the exact same size than the antenna

I need to take a road trip but I have nowhere to go.

I've been doing that my whole life. Look where it's gotten me...
