Thank you for such great footage! I have the same Jeep and been learning what it’s capable of so I love seeing this! I can’t believe the work it did! Makes me feel even better about having this Jeep. Thanks again!
It's fun to watch these international videos! I just picked up a 2012 Liberty Limited KK. In the U.S.A the KK isn't considered a "real" jeep" so nobody posts cool videos of what it can really do.
The stock standard Toyota Hilux sold here has finally caught up with the KK for capability and these were first released in 2008. Funny how an out of production "not a real Jeep" was better than the most popular SUV sold down under. I'd like to see an offroad comparison with the new Hilux.
I am from South Africa, I have had 3 Jeeps, KJ, KK and a WK2. Out of the 3 the KK was my favourite and the most well balanced car between on and off road(and I am in the market currently for another)The WK2 was lbviously the nicest to drive with all the bells and whistles but I could never get myself to take a ZAR800K vehicle on an off road track. Only adventure done was snow in Lesotho in 2015 and some mountain trips in Drakensberg South Africa but nothing over a grade 2 obstacle. KK in my opinion is the most awesome of the 3 though I have tried a level 4 obstacle with my KJ once and succeeded which was awesome. But then again when you dont live in the mountains its pointless to have a rugged offroader. I prefer a good blend Awesome video guys. You have now convinced me even more.
My dad has an jeep KK Liberty witch he bought in 2008 in Venezuela when it was new also in that country and other markets it was called the Cherokee not liberty he still keeps it running strong in stock form and it has some very amazing offroading capabilities right now has some low miles for a family SUV 117k miles (189k km) as it right now
I'm thinking an LSD would interfere with the already very capable traction control. There are so many things to buy to modify a 4wd, no point wasting $ on what already works great. I'd suggest the TJM / Hannibal roof rack as it has a full length extruded alloy rail that replaces the plastic Jeep one. Also the rack has 6 mounting brackets, is strong but lightweight and there are heaps of accessories for mounting tyres, tents, fuel cans, axe, etc...
I have a 08 kk manual and its fun a little 2.5 lift and tires i do a lil trail riding nothing crazy my kids love it when I dump the clutch it moves . My daily driver to work and fishing on weekends I have a new car that I barely use because we kinda like the mud and out doors!! I don't treat it like my old cherokee that thing was a tank and only meant for the woods
I owned a couple of these, although it wasn't toted for being at the time this was the last "real" little jeeps ever made. Underpowered boxy suv that can go anywhere. Not it was not refined but it got the job done without all the fancy bs that'll leave you in the shop
Answer by fairmont: "In the US it's a Liberty. Everywhere else in the world, it's still badged as a Cherokee. Look at the door moldings." Check 3:13, and I don't know how you see 2 Cherokees when it's only one.
@@AussieFourWheelers Yep I am not your typical Seppo, just did a 2.5in lift kit on my 2011 and love it. can't wait to get some extra $$ and weld in a new roof and get rid of the skylsider and add a good safari rack.
awsome video.... where did you get your lift kit from??? i am looking to do mine now... all i can find is a 2inch lift.....was there any other mods you had to do for the 3inch?? after my lift i want to order one of those bullbars from uneek.... then my black kk limited is set!!!!
@Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD) Hi, I know it has been a while since you uploades this video but could you please make a list or name what you did to this jeep? it would be really helpfull. Thanks and great vid!!!
Hi Fercho, you can find out more about this particular Jeep here: www.ausjeepoffroad.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=198 It doesn't look like that anymore but still has the same licence plate. Hope that helps?
Here in Brazil, it’s called Cherokee Sport. I would like to buy one, I have a 95’ but I would like to change for such car 2012, what do Americans or any other Nationality think? How is this Jeep Liberty in your Countries?
C'est sympa de mettre en vedette un Commander!!!!!! C'est un véhicule attachant et très efficace en Tout-Terrain. Dommage qu'il n'a pas eu le succès auquel il pouvait légitimement prétendre.
The Jeep Liberty (KK), or Jeep Cherokee (KK) outside North America, is a compact SUV that was produced by Jeep. ... For its followup, the name of Liberty was retired; the next generation restored the name of "Cherokee". Are all these Off Road ready? Or are these modified? I have a 2009 Liberty ( from canada) Id like to drive through a stream too!
It's a good display of the Jeep traction control at work despite the lack of flex in the suspension. This Cherokee has a CRDStu 3" lift with custom springs to handle constant heavy load, but on this trip the Jeep is lightly loaded and the front sway bar was not disconnected when traversing the rutted sections. Plans are in place to mount a General 4x4 Co bull bar, custom rear drawer system, and a TJM/Hannibal roof rack to carry the spare tyre and roof top tent (all together heavy). Note also th
Just a modified antenna bracket bought at an auto store. Don't recommend the location, better to place further up near the back of the bonnet where the plastic trim is.
Aussie Four Wheelers gotcha , most be a North America thing lol all our libertys(Cherokee ) are all having transmission problems and heater cores going out in the first like 100,000 miles
Have a jeep Cherokee 2010 starting problem and kill mode kicks in going up hill did replace two feulpumps gloplugs and computer still have to start with spray can start y bastert dealer can't fix it any ideas cheers jo
Aussie Four Wheelers it's a diesel have done second opinion they think now that the central midrailfeul line ??? Repair cost approx $4000 those that sound right cheers jo
+Jo Coervers nah, stuff that. I'd start with sensors and smaller shit first. They wanted to rip off a mate of mine $4.5K last year to change the computer. I went there with a $90 part and fixed it in front of them lol. Useless pieces of shit.
These new models come with what's called BLD or "brake lock differential". Next best thing to lockers. When I'd does the old WHEEL WITH NO TRACTION GETTING ALL THE POWER, software automatically applies brake to the free spinning wheel, thereby transferring power to the wheel with grip. Not an equal to lockers, but sure better than regular old fashioned 4 wheel drive just being glorified 2 wheel drive... One in the front and one in the back... Lol.
The Liberty/Cherokee is an underrated off-road beast!
Thank you for such great footage! I have the same Jeep and been learning what it’s capable of so I love seeing this! I can’t believe the work it did! Makes me feel even better about having this Jeep. Thanks again!
Glad you enjoyed it and hope you enjoy your Jeep adventures 😊
Love how capable these KK's are!
In the US it's a Liberty. Everywhere else in the world, it's still badged as a Cherokee. Look at the door moldings.
Guys the Liberty was marketed as the Cherokee outside US Markets.

I'll give you reliability but capability, not even close.
This is still a good Jeep, the new KL is just a lifted Alfa Romeo Giulietta...
I just bought one myself and its crazy how underestimated they are when Toyota Prados in the same condition and kms are going for 3x the price!
Nice video man! Just picked one myself.....keep rocking!
Thanks man 👍 Enjoy exploring the outdoors.
I have just picked up a KK 2011 Jeep Cherokee, heaps of go fast bits and old man emu suspension, love it and I am in Tasmania.
Hope it serves you well mate 👍

Thank you very much for giving your thoughts based on your personal experience. Great to hear that the KK is a decent machine.
It's got really good traction Control mate. Great vid
OUTSTANDING driving!

The Wrangler is the last real Jeep...
Great video!!! I'm the owner of 2012 Liberty Jet (sadly not 4wd). Your video made me wish mine were 4wd. Good Job! :-)

Great hill climbs! Did you have to use 4WD Low and leave it in 2nd gear? I have the KK Limited > sometimes struggling with hill climbs :-(
I love my Jeep Liberty 2011!.
Everyone that says that the liberty KK is not a real jeep can go bugger off.
Hahaha 😂 Good one champ 👍
I mean its got an IFS, thats just not a jeep thing, period.
@@heytherebato what modern off road truck/suv have solid front setup?
@@AussieFourWheelers Yep I am not your typical Seppo, just did a 2.5in lift kit on my 2011 and love it. can't wait to get some extra $$ and weld in a new roof and get rid of the skylsider and add a good safari rack.
And I got some skid plates made up to protect the bottom better than the stock plates.
Muy buen video, saludos desde Madrid, solo una pregunta el jeep KK del video esta subido en altura la amortiguacion?
Thanks أخي
awsome video.... where did you get your lift kit from??? i am looking to do mine now... all i can find is a 2inch lift.....was there any other mods you had to do for the 3inch?? after my lift i want to order one of those bullbars from uneek.... then my black kk limited is set!!!!
Mate, could you plz tell me where did u get the uhf antenna mount from, I have been looking one for the bonnet..
Thanks dude!
Very impressive from factory.
@Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD)
Hi, I know it has been a while since you uploades this video but could you please make a list or name what you did to this jeep? it would be really helpfull. Thanks and great vid!!!
Hi Fercho, you can find out more about this particular Jeep here:
www.ausjeepoffroad.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=198
It doesn't look like that anymore but still has the same licence plate.
Hope that helps?
Awesome video! I have a 2012 KK w/ Commandtrac. You may have answered this question earlier, but what 4WD system do you have on your KK?
I have a 2012 KK CRD Limited here in Australia and she has Selec-Trac II
That roof rack is branded Frontrunner in the US.
Great car for sure
Awesome 👍🏾👍🏾 2010 Jeep Liberty off-road review .
Thanks bud 👍 Glad you liked it.
I subscribe to your UA-cam Channel
I have this jeep very nice jeep for off road
Nice video, like an ad for Jeep, they should pay you lol
Great video man
Usama Said Thanks Usama, I'm glad you liked it.
Too funny, Chasing the kids through the creek...
Lol 😂
Here in Brazil, it’s called Cherokee Sport. I would like to buy one, I have a 95’ but I would like to change for such car 2012, what do Americans or any other Nationality think? How is this Jeep Liberty in your Countries?
Is there a lift out on this please?
Do you still have your Jeep because thinking about getting one not sure if they r good do they have much iusses
Literally about to get this same exact Jeep. Except without the lift lol.
Nice 👍 enjoy!
Great vid!
Have it got any kind of differential blocker?
No lockers, it's got traction control.
Hi New follower.on which Gear used on climbing? and Downhill?
How good is that!
Any mods to this KK other than a 2 inch lift??
They should have kept the Cherokee name in the US instead of calling it the Liberty. It looks a lot like an updated XJ would look.
Yeah, true 👍
At least more so than the earlier "cutesy" liberty did.
Yeah but it was only sold in the us as the Liberty, the world knew the liberty and Patriot by the Cherokee title
They did keep the Cherokee name in the U.S. the guy that made the video just called a liberty a Cherokee.
3" lift.
Cool video man
I’ve got a 2009 Rocky Mountain edition
Bonjour,
Il est bien ce Cherokee, qu'est-ce qu'il est devenu?
I think you have the same suspension as I have on my KK. I have 2 inch OME (Old Man Emu) with Bilstein's. What size tire do you run?
245/70R16
was this a stock kk? no lift kit?
nice vid man
C'est sympa de mettre en vedette un Commander!!!!!! C'est un véhicule attachant et très efficace en Tout-Terrain. Dommage qu'il n'a pas eu le succès auquel il pouvait légitimement prétendre.
The salesman said my Honda CRV can do all of this!!!.....yeah right!...lol!
WHat size tires you running? That KK looks sharp
245/70R16
How much did it cost you?
Got one like it exactly

Are all these Off Road ready? Or are these modified? I have a 2009 Liberty ( from canada) Id like to drive through a stream too!
This one had a 2" lift and slightly bigger tyres.
Cool. Been wanting to learn Jeep Offroading
Hello!
Can toi tell me if this liberty il is lifted UP or stock model??
Thanks You !!!
Hello 👋 yes, it's lifted 2 inches.
bellissimo!
is it across over jeep 🚙
Love this video!
I also own a 2008 silver cherokee kk
Can't wait to get it lifted and looking cool like yours!
Great driving BTW :)
Glad you liked it. There will be another one soon 😉
Do you run on LPG, otherwise whats that black spot for, at the left of the rear bumper?
You're right, good eyes ;)
The axes don´t interlock at all, must be better if the stabilizers are loosened
Impressive! What size tires you running? They look bigger than the 245/75r16 everyone says is the max without rubbing.
They are 245/70R16
AZ guy have a KK 170K miles great off road Not for HD rock crawler good ride 👍
Is this the 2" Daystar lift? It looks nice, but looks like it rides stiff.
No, not Daystar. It's proper coil lift. Could be higher rated coils.
Hi is the HEMI ENGINE GOOD ? PLEASE ADVISE
This is increrble
are you guys aussies? if you are and live near brisbane can I come? haha

Glad you loved it 💙
Its selec trac?
What bracket was used to mount the antenna?
Just a modified antenna bracket bought at an auto store. Don't recommend the location, better to place further up near the back of the bonnet where the plastic trim is.
At 00:26 you should turn the wheels a lil bit to the left, because you were close to land on roof ;)
Not even close and I'd turn right instead if it was.
nice vid
Hello,
Can someone please tell me what KK stands for?
Thanks,
It's the "internal" model designation, e.g. KJ = the previous model (shape), etc.
Amo mi carro es una jeep Liberty 2011 igual a esta jeep del video pero en negro
un monstro
😂 dang near crapper my pants when I saw the steering wheel on the other side, sick Liberty though , any problems with it yet ?
No problems that I know of.
Aussie Four Wheelers gotcha , most be a North America thing lol all our libertys(Cherokee ) are all having transmission problems and heater cores going out in the first like 100,000 miles
Have a jeep Cherokee 2010 starting problem and kill mode kicks in going up hill did replace two feulpumps gloplugs and computer still have to start with spray can start y bastert dealer can't fix it any ideas cheers jo
Is it a petrol or diesel? Check you air sensors, idle air and mass air flow, also PCV and EGR in the meantime.
Aussie Four Wheelers it's a diesel have done second opinion they think now that the central midrailfeul line ??? Repair cost approx $4000 those that sound right cheers jo
+Jo Coervers nah, stuff that. I'd start with sensors and smaller shit first. They wanted to rip off a mate of mine $4.5K last year to change the computer. I went there with a $90 part and fixed it in front of them lol. Useless pieces of shit.
I just bought a 2012 does this one have a lift kit ?
Yes, 2" lift.
I love jeeps but isn't that a Liberty?
Body lift or ammo + suspension kit?
No body lift
What type 4x4 system does this KK have?
Selec-Trac II
Great video that your title says this is a Cherokee??
Yeah it's badged as a Cherokee outside North America.
Is that stock suspension and tires?
No, it has a 2" lift and 31s.
is the car stock or u got a lift kit installed ?
2 inch lift
That's a Jeep liberty, I've got one right now lol
ya only a liberty here stateside
This is a stock Jeep Cherokee kk?? Nice video !!
It has 2 inches of lift
So where abouts were you driving?
This was at Rydal
woooooouuuu
Does this 4 wheel drive system transfer power to the tires with traction? Looks like it
Yes, it uses traction control.
These new models come with what's called BLD or "brake lock differential". Next best thing to lockers. When I'd does the old WHEEL WITH NO TRACTION GETTING ALL THE POWER, software automatically applies brake to the free spinning wheel, thereby transferring power to the wheel with grip. Not an equal to lockers, but sure better than regular old fashioned 4 wheel drive just being glorified 2 wheel drive... One in the front and one in the back... Lol.
Much better and I got a ARB for my Chrysler 8.25 so it's amazing now
There very good vehicles kJ,kk
His is lifted atleast a couple inches
Yeah 2"
Wow
i heard they were gonna call it a cherokee but after 9/11 they called it the liberty.
Oh never mind I read the comment just before mine. But it's weird they do that sense this model is a couple grand more money.
That's so strange that they would have it called the Cherokee, instead of the Liberty.
It's a Cherokee everywhere else but North America
What lift do you have?
It's a 2" lift.
