What do people think about the best service manual for the KJ? I've got an 07 Liberty KJ and thinking of a Chilton's but heard Haynes are alright too..

Factory. I have seen other years FSM's listed online in PDF format for free so you might find what you need via google searching.

I have the FSM's for free on my website. If you search the forum you will find the link to the FSMs.

FSM is always best but if you decide to get Haynes or Chiltons get the Haynes because it is cheaper, Chilton is now owned by Haynes and while they still charge more for the Chiltons all it is is the Haynes manual with a Chiltons cover. I have both for the KJ and they are word-for-word the exact same book.

Yeah...... but then you have to answer the 'this search sux' thread and have to explain how to use Google advanced .......it's simpler to give them a couple of answers.....and then let them search...
