wouldn't you like to know
Changed the Reverse Switch. HELPFUL TIP: don't by the 7/8" deep 3/8 socket from Autozone if you have to, it won't work. The inside wall is too think. Buy it from O'Reily's if you have to go buy it. And bring the part with you. The inside wall is thinner on the one from O'reily's

Installed some Inifinity Reference 6502ix 6.5" speakers in all four doors. Sounds amazing. I recommend using the amp if you do. I just mounted it in on the inside of the door.

Snow!! :banana-mario: got at least a foot already and it's still coming down....awesome surprise when the forecast was only 2-4".

once the roads were sufficiently covered, I threw it on 4HI and took the dog for a ride to the park. Great to let her run around in the snow when no one is there. Love my KJ in the snow, even with my crap tires I never slide unless I want to....do not like other idiots on the road, like the kid hauling a$$ down the road on a quad that almost slid into me coming around a corner. Took completely untouched dirt roads home so I didn't have to worry about getting hit by someone else.

Went to start it up this morning and all i got was a click click click and the scan gauge was reading 10.8 volts from the battery. Started up fine the night before but I guess the cold finally killed the battery. So after a jump from the wife's compass I replaced the battery. Got over 6 years out of it.

Then took it out in the snow to test the BFG Rugged Terrains I installed earlier in the year. Went to baseball field parking lot behind my house. The lot is never plowed because it's dirt lot with a lot of dips in the surface. Stopped and open the door to see how deep it was. My wife started to freak a little because the door pushed aside about 2-3 inches of snow. She instantly thought we were stuck. Drove out like a champ and went to the mall for chicken wing pizza. :)

We got about a foot or so of snow here and me and the wife were coming back from the good ol wal-mart, I always back into my parking spot behind my house and it's on a slight incline. After attempting three times to back up into it, I put it in 4hi and had no issues. Again...stock tires. Can't wait for these damned duratracs

Drove around in the snow all weekend. I would hate the snow if it wasnt for my jeep.

Nothing fancy.
Put a new head unit in, as I was tired of no way to get my MP3 player hooked up. Easy enough swap, does make my hands itch to do something more than little stuff or oil changes.

I am also putting my list of wanna dos together. And planning out the order, based on finances and what makes sense.

And ya, first winter with the Liberty, so some time in the snow was had.

i have been having steering problems so i stated a thread and followed the advce of several members.

i checked the power steering pump, it was fine tons of fluid. do i need to maybe change the fluid? i also checked the belt and it was fine too. sooooo now what? gonna bring the truck in on wednesday to have it looked at

also been searching for new speakers since im left with 1 working speaker, i have 04 limited and some sites say my speakers have amps n some say i dont. i have the radio controls on steering wheel so you would think i have amps.

Did you try crutchfield.com? They're great, that's where I order everything audio wise. You just fill out your vehicle specs and they list everything that will list what fits your vehicle.
