They use the same mounts. I'm going to try and come up with something this summer for it. For the time being, my rear is the only real recovery point...

I'm done with class after this weekend. Literally I'm in the process of writing a 7page paper right now to hand in tomorrow by noon(today now...). Then by Monday I have to email the professor the electronic copy plus a 15 slide minimum powerpoint on the paper(so he doesn't have to read 7 pages from the 60+ students...).

After that I'll get under the Jeep and see what I can come up with. I honestly prefer d-rings to hooks, but whatever is possible is what will be done. As of right now I'm thinking of something along the lines of ATH's front recovery system.

P.s I don't know why I let the professor make me for a paper on Fiat's efficiency. I told him I drive a Jeep and like performance....but that's not very Italian-American AND he said Fiat-Ferrari has been done before lol.

I graduate Saturday! :goink:

Wrote my final paper on how the Prius is not so economical and the other options consumers have. Got a B+ on it.

Saturday as in tomorrow the 17th or next Saturday the 24th? I turn 21 on the 24th :5SHOTS:

I'm almost done. About a page or so left. Keep getting distracted and just had my first cup of coffee lol. Depending on when I finish I might just get dressed, wake the girlfriend up to come with and go straight to school. I can sleep when I come home. I might also take her car depending on how much gas she has. Her 200s gets way better mileage than my Jeep.

I'm going to have to take an extra year. I still have to decide my minor and my girlfriend did the math recently. If everything works out "perfectly" I could take 5 classes for the next 3 semesters and graduate 1 semester behind. I'm lazy and going to continue my 4 classes a semester and graduate a year behind. The sad thing is I came in with credits from high school.

Morning guys! Exhaust came in last night pretty excited to install it. Looking at Monday or Tuesday, buddy of mine works at a paint shop and said we can use the hoist after hours

I could probably get that again if I took a drive on the highway. Every place I need to go is very close to me so I do a lot of short trips.

Does anyone know if a jeep dealer can calibrate my speedometer

LKWJeeper · **Posted:** Sun May 18, 2014 10:19 am

They can only calibrate to the largest stock tire size

They "can" do it but it's not a canned choice. I had it done but the mechanic had to do some math to make it work. Not sure what he meant by doing some math but it worked.
That said, sometimes they aren't very cooperative.

. Ted15 so if I brought it to my dealer who sells lifted jks and lifted trucks that they install the lifts on themselves and clam to calibrate those speedos to be correct they should be able to do it ??

Well the dealer that I've talked to said it couldn't be done. Good to know ted you've had it done.

They aren't very receptive to modding a liberty. Some of the dealers look at them as a crossover. You should've heard them bitching about my 245/75-16 tires. "do you know those are truck tires?" they said.
I was able to speak directly to the mechanic and I guess I caught him in the right mood, he liked the challenge of it.

Well my dealer loves lifted anything and they went crazy over my liberty so I think I'll be ok but I'm gonna ask and see what they say how much did it run you

He did when I had it serviced, no charge since he had it hooked up to the computer anyway.
