want to buy a liberty, yes or no?

[swi dog]

i need opinions on jeep libertys with a diesel are they worthy enouph to pull a 97 tj 2.5l with dana 60s.

[silverxj]

no. don't. ask Longarm.

I have seen a few come through the shop. The motor has expensive maintenance intervals and the trannies are junk.

If you do decide otherwise, DO NOT buy a green one, it just may have been a lemon.

[swi dog]

i herd of the egr valves going bad.so what do you think about the 3.7l gas.

[silverxj]

Not the most tow rig savvy motor.

[swi dog]

There is a guy in Lapeer, 1crazyredneck or something on here who tows with a diesel liberty with good luck

i would not tow that big of a rig with a liberty diesel. we towed a 2wd ranger on my 18ft car hauler with a libirty diesel. it has the power. its the weight and stability that was kind of scary. especially on smaller roads that have curves and uneven pavement. it towed on the highway at 63mph in overdrive with cruise on, like a dream though. from grand rapids to flint. and watch out for the power steering lines. They tend to rub and burst at 30k miles. and chrysler wont cover it. they are 11 FAWKING FEET LONG AND COST $400 TO REPLACE.

I had a diesel liberty. Stay away from it. Everytime I towed the tranny shuttered for a week after. It had all the egr updates and every service update to fix the issue, and it never fixed it. Just don't do it.
