NO Researve!
2006 Jeep Liberty CRD Diesel, 4x4 with lots of upgrades
I'm unloading just about everything because I am moving soon, two vehicles gone, and two more to go.
First, the bad, and the reason for the low price and no reserve.
Sunroof will open, but not close.  It is stuck open ~1".  It's been taped since it happened, and no water has gotten past the tape.  It's either the switch, or the motor, don't know which.  The tape comes off easily enough with a heat gun and mineral spirits to clean up the residue.
ABS is not working, this is a known issue.  The wiring harness that runs inside the floor breaks at the rear connector.  I have a new harness that will be included, but it is not installed.
Passenger side airbag fuse is pulled due to Recaro seats.  The factory seat uses an occupant sensor that is built into the seat, and the airbag light on the passenger grab bar, above the glove box, is illuminated if the fuse is in. 
There is a bit of loss of power, but I don't know why.  Check engine light is NOT on, there are no apparent leaks of anything anywhere.  It could be buildup in the valves and intake runners which can also happen with these if the PCV is left to vent directly into the turbo.  I moved the PCV vent into the airbox, so it pulls through the airfilter, but I did buy it used.
Minor damage to rear passenger door (see pics) thanks to another driver that required evasive maneuvers a couple years ago.
Passenger side strut stud is broken (I think).  The strut is not secured to the strut tower, but, I will include a NEW pair of Old Man Emu Struts.

So, it's not perfect, and needs a little work, but for all the work that's been done, it's still a great deal.


The Goods:
Old Man Emu 1.5" springs
Skyjacker front struts
Old Man Emu rear shocks $800

(5) New 215/85R16 Cooper ST tires, great in everything but deap mud
Suncoast Torque Converter $700
Transgo Shift Kit, 45RFE-HD2, $150
Mag-Hytec Deep Transmission Pan $300
Deep aluminum finned rear differential cover $150
Detroit TrueTrac rear differential $800 installed
NEW Turbo, less than 500 miles $800 installed
NEW SKF hubs, less than 500 miles $600 installed
Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotors
Ceramic Brake Pads
Green Diesel Engineering Tune, with programmer $900
Recaro leather seats from a Saline Mustang, these are pretty nice, and in excellent condition....I forget how much I paid
JVC Arnsenal Stereo
High Flow Exhaust, 2.5" aluminized from downpipe back
Dynomax muffler

There is a chance I missed something, because I've had it for a few years and have worked on it over time, but I think that's everything.  That's over $5000 in parts, with better ride and traction.

Check my feedback, if you're concerned about the one negative, maybe you should re-read it.  I cancelled the transaction because three weeks later, he still hadn't paid me.  It was supposed to be removed, looks like I need to make another call the the wonderful eBay help center.

The fascinating history of the Popemobile

Tue, Sep 22 2015

Pope Francis will be arriving today in the US for a variety of stops, including the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia, PA. While here, the Pontiff won't be riding in the usual Mercedes-Benz Popemobile, but instead will make a more American switch to a modified Jeep Wrangler, according to the Washington Post. It'll feature a protected front, top, and rear, but the sides will be open for His Holiness to see the throngs of people gathering for him. For hundreds of years, Popes were transported in horse-drawn carriages or sometimes carried in an enclosed chair by footmen, but His Holiness finally traded for some real horsepower in 1929. While his ride sometimes varied depending on the country being visited, a Mercedes-Benz was generally the common choice. However, the Pontiffs have ridden in everything from a modified GMC Sierra to a Ferrari Mondial over the past few decades. Pope Francis has definitely preferred more plebeian transportation, though, including a Renault 4 running on biofuel. A trip to South Korea even put him in a Kia Soul, and he opted for an Isuzu D-Max in the Philippines. The Post's whole list is quite a fun read, and it's fascinating to see how the Popemobiles evolve over time. Related Video:

NHTSA upgrading Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango headliner fire probe

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation into headliner fires experienced by a small number of Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango owners has been upgraded to an engineering analysis, the step before the initiation of a recall. In August last year the investigation began with 146,000 Grand Cherokees from 2012 after three complaints were received, but a report on Edmunds says it has been expanded to include 593,299 vehicles covering the 2011-2013 model years for the Jeep and the Dodge Durango, which uses the same headliner assembly, because of possibly 52 incidents of fire.
In some of those incidents drivers have reported a burning odor, smoke or open flames that were contained to the headliner or migrated to another area of the passenger compartment. The culprit has apparently been found: NHTSA blaming an electrical short in the sun visor vanity light wiring, which is routed under the headliner and held in place by three screws. Chrysler began its own probe into the issue when it was first reported and is still looking into the situation while, "fully supporting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation."

2014 Jeep Cherokee facing production delay

Fri, 17 May 2013

Jeep's bold-faced new direction spearheaded by the 2014 Cherokee is facing some teething issues. According to a report by the Detroit Free Press, production start-up of the controversial new utility vehicle at its Toledo North facility is running about a month behind schedule "due to a wide range of issues." That's according to Mark Chernoby, senior vice president of engineering at Chrysler.
Chernoby maintains that the issues being encountered aren't unusual for the launch of a new vehicle - particularly one with a new powertrain - and he downplayed the delay, telling Jeep dealers that they "will have ample inventory of the midsize SUV by fall." Among the kinks being worked out? Calibrating the Cherokee's cutting-edge ZF nine-speed automatic transmission and refining assembly line tasks to make the process more efficient.
Chrysler expects to start building retail-ready versions of the Cherokee around mid-June, with official sales slated to start in September.
