Help Request Dobinsons shocks difference

1 Upvotes

My local store sells dobinsons lift set (shocks + coil springs), but the part number for the rear shocks is GS29-727-2 instead GS29-724. The guy on the phone said yeah, it’s for wk, but it fits without problems. It seems some shops sell them for kj in Europe. Does anybody have any experience with it? Will they fit without much problems?

Jeep Sahara passenger doors won’t open

2 Upvotes

As the title states the 2 back doors won’t open. At first one of the doors seemed like it had the child safety lock in which I disabled. But then it locked again and now both door won’t open from the inside or the outside. I unlock doors from the drivers side but nothing will open it. Has anyone dealt with this issue before?

Hey everyone I had a situation. Some mice got in and completely destroyed my harness.. all my dash lights went off except the airbag light and my radio stopped working. There’s one wire I did not mess with because I was a little nervous because of where it’s chewed up.. does anyone know if this wire is the wire that controls my radio? It’s the brown and tan wire

2008-2012 KK Weird engine start noise

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

My car overheated a month ago and the cylinder heads were damaged, then the mechanic did some “welding” as he stated as an alternative to replacing but I replaced the head gaskets and fan clutch, I still need to replace the belt tensioner because it’s worn but I doubt this noise is from the belt tensioner.

What could the noise possibly be from?

2008-2012 KK Weird Shaking/Vibration while Idling

4 Upvotes

For a few days now my liberty has been shaking a bit/vibrating sometimes when it is idling whether that be as soon as I turn the car on or stopping it after driving. One of the times it happened my check engine even began flashing. I At first I thought it might have been a misfire but I managed to look at the car and notice that something underneath the car is shaking and it is not from the engine.

Help Request 2005 KJ Sunroof alignment...

1 Upvotes

The sunroof on my 2005 has been endless trouble. I finally found a suitable gasket from the Sunroof Doctor (https://www.sunroofdoctor.com/). The Amazon gaskets were all way too skinny.

Now that I can get the sunroof off and replace the gasket, I can't get the sunroof to cycle correctly. It opens up less than an inch and won't retract at all. I am about ready to remove the fuse - if I can find it...

I didn't move the frame with the sunroof out. How do I 'time' or 'align' the gear such that it opens and closes?

Thanks in advance!

Help Request I need urgent help. Key won't turn on 04 Liberty Sport.

8 Upvotes

I can't get my key to turn on my 04 Liberty Sport.

I am at rock bottom right now. I don't know a lot about automotive stuff. I have $40 until Friday and I have a lot of places to go before then, critical appointments and school pickup.

I tried hitting the key, that didn't work. I don't think the actuator is damaged(yet anyways).

I read that you can start it with a screwdriver but I don't know where you would do that. I tried the ignition switch but that didn't do anything but make a singular clicking noise somewhere.

I can't get the lock cylinder out because the key won't turn.

I don't know anything about bridging electricity so I don't know how I would turn the car off if that method actually works.

I'm pretty sure the problem is the lock cylinder, an uneducated guess.

Can I somehow start it with a screwdriver?

Can I take the lock assembly out and try to repair that part and get the key to turn outside of the vehicle?

2002-2007 KJ 05 Liberty CRD with 140k miles

3 Upvotes

How much would an excellent running clean title, liberty CRD go for. We’re going to be advertising it soon and I have nothing online to compare it to, I feel like we’re going to be the only retail location in the US with one for sale. Only sales are on forums and people just say “best offer” and then say “sold”. We’re putting 4 new All terrain tires on it as the ones it has are dry and cracking but otherwise tons of tread. It has what looks to be a very small leveling or lift kit or 2 inch lift. Ice cold AC, Good Paint, Super clean interior once we’re done detailing it. Weather tech mats all around. Rock sliders as well, I just drove it home and it cruised at highway at 70 like a dream and just passed smog as well. Also it’s a California car no rust at all of course.

Turn signal

Today while I was out driving in town while making a left turn my signal started going at twice its normal speed. I had been driving for about 30 minutes and it didn’t do it before. The right signal still blinks at the normal speed.

Has anyone else had that happen?
