I want to put LT 215/85 or LT 225/85 6, 8, or 10 ply tires on our 2006 Grand. It is equipped with the 4.7 liter V8, full time 4WD, low range, Power Steering, Traction control, and basically a stock vehicle. Will the tires I chose work without modifying the vehicle, or hitting/rubbing any parts...

I sold a 93 XJ with 233,000 miles, needing tires and brakes for $300 June 2008. It had no modifications. Engine was in fine shape, used Amsoil every 8,000 miles. Just changed under carriage fluids, anti-freeze, brake fluid and PS fluid. Had upgraded A/C. It would need, in the near future, an...

I was driving our 06 WK in New England last weekend when the odometer turned 32,000 miles. About 600 miles later a bell sounded and a message stating "service 4WD system" came on in the information center. We looked in the owner's manual for information. The only thing we found was in the...

Just changed plugs at 30,375 miles. Book says 30,000 miles. The plugs I took out had no deposits, gap was as specification and looked clean as new except for heat discoloration. Any one know why Jeep recommends change at 30,000. I had a 92 XJ until 235,000 MILES and the book said to change every...

Will be needing tires in a bit. 2006 WK original equipment is Bad Wear Wranglers 235/65R17. Does anyone know whether LT225/85R17 or LT215/85R17 will fit without rubbing any body parts? I'm wanting to get some lift without adding parts and pieces to the machine and want to get better load...

I just reviewed the OM when I recently serviced oil and lube looking for what comes next. WK has 26,000 miles. It looks like spark plugs should be changed at 30,000. That causes a question. I had a 92 XJ on which I religiously changed the spark plugs at 60,000 miles. It was traded for a KJ CRD...

Here's more information regarding CRD air intake crap clean-up issues. In my previous writing about EGR issues I wrote about researching an alternative for the Provent CCV filter. My reason for that is that the Provent is one expensive little piece of plastic. I found an alternative described...

Here's the scoop on finalizing this issue for the time being. The good news is everything works as intended by Jeep engineers. Now here's the "rest of the story." See my post above for the 12/15/08. The bio Diesel has nothing whatsoever to do with the issues. I still haven't used any, but it...

Hi, another experience similar to yours. Had a 92 XJ. Purchased it one year new in 93 with 30,000 hiway miles. Saw it when it came into the dealers as the previous owner was trading on a 93 model. I picked it up for a song, and also had the opportunity to chat with him. Only problem he ever had...

Here we are again. On 26 Jan 2009, replaced the intake pressure sensor. They drove the KJ for about twenty minutes, shut it down a couple of times, started it and then declared it was ready to go. I stopped at the grocer's again after leaving the dealer's. When I came out no light ... good sign...

Here's the replacement saga final chapter. Purchased mirror from PartsTrain.com. Arrived as advertised. less than half the price of purchase from Jeep/Chrysler. The first day I tried to remove the door panel was very cold. The little plastic clips were not giving, I was afraid they would all...

OK EGR flow control valve replaced. I was there about 1 1/2 hours. They turned me loose and I went to a grocery for my wife. As I left the grocer's the check engine light relit. It was across the street from the dealer's so i went right back. They were decidedly perplexed as was I. They took it...

It's me again. I was at the dealer's for the check of the Check Engine light yesterday, Tuesday the 13th of January 2009. They checked the codes it was giving that time and determined that the EGR Controller was in need of replacement. Apparently it is a separate issue from the EGR Valve. They...

SteelHeadz I mentioned the fix for this in another message at the 4-door hardtop section. However, I thought it might be best to close this because it started here. I had the appointment at the dealership and I asked them to check all four wheels and the system. As it happened, the light went on...

Promised to keep site posted on this issue. I took the Liberty CRD to the second dealer on the 5th of January as planned. They checked the engine light on issue and found it to be that old codes had not been erased when the new EGR was installed. So they erased old codes and reset the computer...

Thanks. No problem. I built the garage last fall about 50 feet from the house. I wanted to keep as many trees as possible. One of them is right on the edge of the new driveway and I have just barely missed it twice before. I needed twelve feet of clearance to get the construction trucks into the...

SteelHeadz Thanks. Directions clear as crystal, pics big help. Additional questions: Exactly what is a "trim stick"? Can one be made from garage/household tools or must one be purchased? What has been experience saving plastic retention clips and associated hardware for holding door panel to...

My first 4 door with solid roof waas a '75 Wagoneer. The old '62 body style was assembled from two thin sheets of steel to aid rigidity and save cost, however, it trapped moisture between the sheets and the inevitable oxidation occurred. Mine had severe oxidation in the tail gate at the bottom...

Advance Auto Parts carries a generic one that works fine. Bought two for my old Cherokee a couple of years ago. Installation took 20 to 30 minutes total from opening the lift gate to closig it with new ones added.

I did a bad. Backing out of garage, hit large (30" diam at butt) tulip poplar with passenger side mirror. Tree fine for all of you enviro wackos. Mirror doa. Have purchased new power control mirror, non heated as original. Is on way from seller. I would like to know what steps to take to remove...
