2004 Jeep Liberty Sport

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA…

but seriously…i understand you didn’t want to give the price, but relax…it’s not going to kill you or make people look at you in a different way.

i payed $15,500 for my CAR…

(OMG i went there!!!)

it’s just a cost…no need to take people’s heads off over it

but either way…

nice buy :tup:

Very nice… I’m glad you are bored.:tup:

and how much more did you spend on the new motor

OMG i went there!!!

haha.

you have the right to remain… BURNED!!!

:lolsign:

obscure conan reference, +1

haha, glad someone recognized it.

:lol: I knew I recognized that from somewhere… I just couldn’t pin point it.

I was just reading on this Jeep Forum that I was looking at and they say that you shouldn’t drive in 4Hi down the thruway because going over 50-55mph in 4wd isn’t the safest thing to do and it wears on the drivetrain alot faster.

Does this make sense to anyone here? :shrug:

EDIT And I know it should only be used when the pavement is not dry… such as Snow and what not.

It’s not recommended to use 4wd @ highway speeds for alot of reasons… but before going into the laundry list I’ll simplify it: If You think that You are in need of extra traction, You should not be travelling at those speeds.

For the 4wd noob: 4wd only helps You accelerate from low speeds. It does not make You invincible, it does not mean that You can stop or steer any faster / better. You should be in 2wd unless You are trying to get out of shit.

No offense intended, and no babies were harmed in the typing of this post.

That’s basically what I thought… if it’s that bad out you shouldn’t being doing the thruway speed limit anyways. And yes, I already knew that 4wd doesn’t make you invincible. Stopping and steering don’t have that much to do with 4wd. :tup:

awd stopping = 2wd stopping,

but i think an awd/fwd would aid a bit in steering? seemed like it can pull you through a turn…

:tup:
You can do it, but it’s not advisable. In one situation (family emergency) i gunned the 33Downtown in 4hi @ 90mph… ~5miles maybe. Nothing blew up, no real irevocable damage.

not the same as 4wd on essuvees. neither the diffs nor the tcase are made like an STi/Evo/etc.

nice location newman.

Location: how come i can say faggot on here, but not nigger?
Well, because faggot is sexist, nigger is racist. This is a automotive based forum, sexism is a standard.

:lol:

I keed, i keeeeed

nice pick up congrates. Dont be affraid to take it off road, thats what its made to do. Just go easy and dont be stupid and nothing will happen.

i drove one before.

i felt like it was going to tip over, and the car had a “cheap” feel to it.

but if its what you wanted

:tup: goodddddd buy.

LOL …ass :smash2:

Uh, as far as I know, if it is like any other Jeep Transfercase :

4Hi = everyday driving including highway.

Extra traction is provided in 4Lo = multiplying power using much much shorter gearing, but not allowing you to travel higher than xxx speed. In most cases after 1994, the T-case locked the center diff when you went to 4Lo - otherwise known as “Lo-lock”

2Hi = two wheel drive everyday driving.

Unless your transfercase has another selection : 4Hi should be perfectly suitable for driving on the highway.

Not a bad ride.

howie, how would the t-case lock the diff? you need a spool inside the differential to lock the axle.

ON TOPIC: you CAN use 4hi at thruway speeds, but you shouldnt for a few reasons. one of them being that like someome said already, if you need 4wd then theres a reason why you shouldnt be going fast. second, on jeeps the front diff/axle and driveshaft arent as strong as the rear so you would be putting more stress on them than your rear components.

and yeah, it is a nice ride. theyre quickly gaining modability and theres tons of aftermarket suspension and driveline parts and general accessories.

electronically? I’ve been out of the Jeep game for a bit, but I know on a 241 or 242 transfercase, that was the situation.
