162,400 and climbing. Couple new turbos - the only big ticket item. 1 replaced under warranty Moog ball joints Replaced universals at about 50k L27 Recall - just got that today - rear control arms? F37 done before I purchased it at 23k so its got whatever torque converter they put in at the time (if they even changed the stock one) Original stock fuel filter head no lift pump. I've been waiting for the slightest hint of fuel issues (air in fuel, shuttering, hard starts etc) to install a lift pump but so far not a hint of trouble. GDE eco tune and removed muffler. |

Bought this baby about 14 months ago and stole it. Paid $9500 for it and she only had 48,000 miles bone stock. Now its got 71,000 miles, Samco hoses, GDE ecotune, everything but the EHM and lift pump from the newbie post done. I really enjoying this little tractor. I have only replaced oil and oil filter every 5k, air and fuel filter twice. So far its been a great vehicle... Waiting for parts to arrive to have the L27 recall work done. Look forward to having this baby run for several hundred thousand more miles!! Sean |

It's a nice ride, isn't it? A family member had a Toyota RAV4 - handling and ride doesn't even come close to the Libby. |

First tranny I have no idea why it failed, I wasn't driving. The CRD is primarily my moms Jeep, so trying to determine if a tire is flat is like pulling teeth. No idea what happened, transmission overheated for one thing, no idea why it that happened - I wasn't there, I wasn't driving it, I have given up on trying to decipher exactly what happened, I don't think I will ever know for sure. Second tranny has 50k+ on it from me, and unknown mileage when I installed it. I suspect over 100k, possibly even 150k based off of how dirty/greasy the unit was on the outside. It got the upgraded TC when I installed the new/used trans. I doubt any damage was done to the trans in the rollover. Basically I have just not had great luck with the trans. I will not be putting in the same tranny again, will either go with an NSG370 or an NV3550. |

Those are manual transmissions, right? I know the NV4500 and NV5600's are used with the Cummins diesels in the Dodge Ram pickups... nice (strong) transmissions.. Mark |

Mark Yes, NV3550 is used in 2000/01 XJs, 2000-04 TJs 2002-04 KJ. NSG370 is used in the 05+ KJ, 05/06 TJ. However the bellhousing is integrated on the NSG370 so it needs to be from a KJ to have the correct bellhousing. The NV3550 has a separable bellhousing, so a NV3550 from a XJ or TJ could be used, but a KJ NV3550 would have the correct bellhousing. |
