LOST JEEPS :: View topic - KK How-To's Index

Just replaced my rear glass seal due to a water leak. It's pretty easy and only took 5min but I threw a how-to together anyways: viewtopic.php?f=104&t=81596

Well the write up a lot of people have been waiting for: IP/Dash/Heater core. I'm in the process of pulling the dash to replace the blend doors and have been taking some pictures. I'm still editing them to make them clearer.

That's going to be super useful for a lot of folks. I'll bookmark it for you and then you can continue building out the thread. Good luck with the disassembly and reassembly. Looks like it is quite a complex job! Kudos to you for doing it yourself.

So, good news. I found this:
viewtopic.php?f=88&t=72715

You mentioned this a long time ago and just did some research before a recent (10 min ago) purchase. Told you my list just keeps growing...

I completed a new how to. Window regulator replacement, it wasn't fun to figure out so hopefully it helps anyone who needs to do one.

Got it! Thanks for the detailed how-to! I'm sure this will be helpful to many as our Jeeps age and components need replacement. Thankfully the KK doesn't seem plagued with window regulator issues like the KJ was.

And now I just realized there was already a how to completed on the subject but I went about it slightly different. Plus the images are hosted on a site that won't go down. Oh well :banghead:

Hey Jeepers,

This week Photobucket decided to pull the plug on free sharing of pics on forums, which has basically messed up all of my posts going back to 2011. Many other authors of historic threads such as Diggerfreek have ended up with the same problem and since they are not on LOST very often, they may not even know it.

There are two ways around the problem currently:
1) If you need to see a locked-out how-to photo, you can still right-click on it and open the URL from Photobucket's website. It's slow and buggy, but you can still view the pictures there.
2) If you are an author of a how-to thread, you can download, save, and then host your images someplace other than Photobucket, then go back and edit your threads with updated IMG links...

I may try to bring my most important threads up to date to fix the broken links, but it might take me a while. In the meantime, if you're looking for photos, you can still try option #1 and open the link on photobucket.com. That is as long as Photobucket is still in business.

If you are an author of how-to threads with broken pictures from Photobucket, please consider option #2 and update your photo links. I'm sure present and future Liberty owners will appreciate it!

If anyone has any special requests for threads they need the pics ASAP, please post your requests here and hopefully the authors will have time to fix the broken links.

Jeep on, :JEEPIN:

Having the part number there is super helpful, and your write up will save someone some if they would otherwise have it done at the dealer. Modding a Jeep yourself has to start with the little things.

I've added several new how-to's to the index over the last couple of weeks. Thanks to Josworth, toy4everyseason, ajohns1288, Gageraid, PAliftedKK and others! What other how-to's do you think we need for the KK section? Ideas? Of course, it would be awesome to eventually have an engine swap thread, or a heater core replacement thread, but I am not wishing either of those on anyone! As you fix and mod your KK in new ways, take lots of pics and document it in the KK tech section, and then let me know so I can add it here.

Post subject:	Re: KK How-To's Index
There are a few new threads in the index, including: - Heater core flushing (thanks, Scar0) - Power window regulator replacement - Engine swap resources I've also deleted a few dead links. If you find any issues with broken links, let me know and I'll clean them up. Also, I thought I'd bump this thread to bring it to the attention of some of our newer members. Cheers, all!

Oh well As a teacher I know how helpful it can be to have things explained in different ways. Your way of walking someone through the process is different from the other, and the high level of detail and pics in your thread makes what could be a daunting task much more doable for someone on the fence about taking it to a dealer or doing it themselves. And the other post was on JF, and because of you now LOST has our own how-to. So I think it is valuable and thanks a lot for taking the time to write it up!

It's been more than a couple of years now and the How-To's Index has grown quite a bit. It's never really finished though, so if you know of any new threads that should be added, post them up here. Also, if you're aware of any dead links, let me know and I can eliminate them. Or if you have an idea for a how-to that doesn't yet exist, make a request and maybe someone will create it. Cheers, Lauren

Jeep on, lfhoward Yep, what a bummer. Out of the blue they started asking $400 a year to host photos, which I won't be doing. I have about 1800 pics of PB so this is quite a travesty for me. I'll be slowly re downloading everything starting with my install instructions.
