SAFETY FIRST
Use a jack and jack stand to do this job.
We're completing this work on a 2005 Jeep Liberty KJ. This specific model is the CRD (common rail diesel), however the same rules apply, and the process is similar on the gas version.

We no longer have this option. Maybe in the future!
Any additional thoughts?
We complete work in a small 2 stall garage with limited space. You can do anything you would like to do, no matter the space you have, just plan accordingly and adjust your plans to the size of your workspace. We Believe In YOU!
Are you able to do lots of work in a limited space?
Yes, without question. The biggest issues we face in our 2stallgarage are organization. Keeping the workspace organized and both stalls clear of clutter really helps with motivation, which then helps with productivity. Basically, if I see a clean workspace, I'm much more ready to dive into a project or even just scheduled maintenance.

nice moves, Ninja Man
Thanks bud! I practice often. 😉
It's amazing how easy some of these jobs actually are and how much the shops charge to do it. When I did my mobile mechanic work I'd get quote on the job from dealership and at least 2 other shops and then give a jobe quote usually about a half the price of the lowest shop price and I'd be surprised still how many people though some of the work was too much n had someone else that could do it cheaper.
Wow
G'day my friend!!
Hey man! I’m out in the shop doing transmission maintenance and I want to go to bed!
@2StallGarage sucks man!! Lol take a nap no 1 will notice!! Hahaha
I wouldn't touch OEM control arms personally, and for sure if it's lifted at all; Like it or not, I see that it is. "Jeep'n By Al" makes great A-arms with Moog serviceable joints for either lifted or not, and you WILL be working on those joints again. So why do the A-arm each time?
I did this 4 times on an '02 pre-lift before the recall just as you're saying here now, and the front end fell off leaving the dealership and entering the freeway to go to court for obstructing traffic because my front end fell off prior! Yes, it is easy to do this yourself but you won't save any money on these things without fixing Diamler-Chrysler engineering flaws with the same flaws.
Look at the recall list of fixes and tell me it's because of heatshields and not the design of the Arm itself. install heatshields. From the wheel!? If my wheels and tires give off heat and can fail a ball joint, boy I tell you what, I should be driving F1 in that Liberty. (the recall installs heatshields over the balljoint facing the wheel and tire).
Passenger side front transaxle also needs a Pink c-clip to retain the axle itself. They oddly wear out and cause clunking or grinding, doesn't come with the OEM axle and usually gone so you don't think there was one. This era of Liberty is trash until you fix the front end with proper geometry and those suggested A-arms are a fix.
This is helpful and great advice, although I’m not sure what you’re meaning by the pink c clip. The replacement axle comes with a c clip which holds the inner axle half shaft into place.
Is the clip you’re referring to a recall that holds it in place better?
I’m 100 percent on board with the control arm thoughts. I’ll plan the upgrade soon for the reasons mentioned. Thank you
Still clunking. Jack it up with the wheel on n wiggle it in and out to see if it could be the hub check steering rack lower control arm and ball joint even the strut could cause it. Iv got similar issues every now n then with expedition just haven't messed with it lately
It's a Jeep. It's every joint in the front end. Cherokee, same thing. Come to think of it, my 2002 Liberty had "Cherokee" on the driver side and "Liberty" on the right. The driver side was bound for Canada, the passenger to America, and the entire front end bound for hell.
Sounds like I’m due for upgrades to improve safety.
I’m out in the shop right now working on transmission maintenance. I’m ready for bud buddy.
@@2StallGarage feel ya there. Just take your time n check over all ya can. What's up with the transmission? Check front axles too since it's 4wd right.
@GlassWerx I’m poopered out but should be done in an hour I suppose. Good thinking. It’s got cv axles. 1 is toast and on order. Hope you guys are having a good night.
