Diesel Power magazine did a nice (5 page) write up on the Liberty CRD. Too make a long story short, the little tractor gained 50 hp and 62 lb-ft of torque for $1,100 dollars as tested on a dyno.
Products include:
1. Magnaflow cat-back exhaust
2. CRD Trailjammer module by Edge Products.
3. Drop in K&N
4. 3 Pod Auto Meter Gauges including pyrometer probe and gauge, transmission temperature gauge, and boost gauge.

(Referring to F37) “The EDGE CRD Trailjammer would put the little turbo diesel back to factory power levels and beyond”

“Ken Imler told us that improvements to both the transmission and torque converter were being developed for the aftermarket in order to ensure the transmission can handle the newfound power.”

Would definately want the Suncoast TC in there before it tears it's self apart though.
Personally, I'd much rather do the InMotion ECM tune and a Suncoast TC.

Thanks for the affirmation of the work (fun) going on here.
I think that the improvements available through this web site, LOST KJ/KK, and the comradery, are far better than having someone take a big lump of cash in one gulp.
Thanks to the senior people here, the transmission issues have been resolved and parts are available.
By the way, our jeeps should have come that way new if Jeep was on the ball.
Even though we do have fun tinkering with Ol' Red.

yes June 2008 Page 176. It took me a while in the store to find the right issue b/c the article is not listed in the front of the mag.

I subscribe, when I saw this article I could only think it's about time they did something with the Libby CRD. They had articles a couple months back with the new Grand Cherokee CRD, where it received a list and then was driven as a chase vehicle Baja 1000.
