[@Heartkiller999]

Wow, and the auto shops want $600-750 for this job where I'm at. What a robbery, thanks for this great video! Gonna swap mine this week.

It's great to hear stories like that. Thanks for sharing! Have fun with your Liberty!!

I just installed a new starter a new battery an a new front drive shaft on my 06 liberty it wasn't that easy but I'm happy now

[@midwestsynthetic]

Happiness is a wonderful thing. Thanks for the comment! Happy New Year!!

[@abdullahshaik4784]

Wow such a amazing video . So much details. Can you make a video for liberty for front main seal and rear main seal. Most people who owns liberty have a problem of engine oil disappear slowly.

I had 2 2005 2.8L Diesel models love them, pulled the PN, ordered confirmed with seller and it came in about 5 inches too short. I can’t imagine a different engine creating a difference in drive line length I would anticipate the drive train to have been the same, but perhaps not. The part looks identical just too short, be careful when ordering parts measure your old one then confirm when ordering parts!

What was the pn for your CRD? I need one.

[@midwestsynthetic]

Thanks for watching! I appreciate the comment!!

Great video. Where can I get a dipstick for the trans?

[@cesarbeg]

Ho, happy new year, Why not only replace the CV joints on the shaft

[@terrysmith8133]

do you have to pull the rear to get the front of the shaft loose?

[@dhat1755]

09 liberty with 193,000 miles now getting replaced. do you remember the milage on the one from this video?

[@midwestsynthetic]

It had about 137,000 when the front driveshaft was replaced. The front driveshaft had previously been replaced by the dealer at 105,000. The quality of replacement parts varies greatly. Thanks for watching and leaving a question!

[@dhat1755]

I guess I did pretty good for iy lasting as long as it did@@midwestsynthetic

[@inlegal1]

Question, how do you lineup the new one if you don’t have marks on it

[@midwestsynthetic]

That was just in case the old one needed to go back on, which was unlikely. Thanks for watching!

[@joecastro23]

Was it causing like a knocking/tick noise under the shifter column area?

[@midwestsynthetic]

It will make noise, and shake violently if it gets bad enough. It's hard tell exactly where the noise is coming from inside the cab. To tell for sure see if the shaft itself wiggles or there's grease trails from a failed boot. The rear boot near the transfer case is likely where the problem is should it be time for a new front driveshaft. Thanks for the question. Good Luck with the Liberty!

[@ernestwilliams1884]

I have a 2004 keep liberty and when I put it in drive it makes a banging noise as lt transfer to the rear.😊

[@gregoneill1495]

Being that the front drive shaft is always rotating, even in 2WD causes a lot of unnecessary wear to the CV joint.

[@DiegoGonzalez-mq3zy]

How much for that driveshaft

[@yycforlife5048]

Stupid question, but do I turn the bolt right to loose it

[@midwestsynthetic]

Nope, all normal right hand threads on this.

[@yycforlife5048]

@midwestsynthetic hey question will a bad driveshaft cause clunking/clicking noise while in drive and the vehicle is in motion. It's not the wheel bearings. It kind of feels underneath me

[@midwestsynthetic]

That's what it sounds like. To be sure see if the shaft wiggles at one of the CV joints.

[@johnnytriana8679]

Or maybe ur rack and pinion
