Re: Jeep liberty drive shaft issue
Hi Khalid welcome to the family, first Pls visit this link and introduce your self to the members
http://www.ad4x4.com/club/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7
for your Q its been lifted too much, the answer is yes to accommodate bigger tires and to stop rubbing
this makes the shaft shorter and start pulling out specially at the turns and will end up by damaged shaft, you need to order a longer modified shaft to clear this issue, or do 2" or less lifting, come on to WM workshop open day on 8 July at 21:00 - 00:01 for consultation they will be able to help you (you must have log book to enter, I will be there to help), check the link for details

You can check with Adiga Posts as he tried that B4 and endup with buying a Rubicon

Like our senior marshal bulldozer said, meet them all on WM open day. You will meet all sorts of experts there. And since the open day is all about jeeps, I'm sure you will end the day with a solution.

Re: Jeep liberty drive shaft issue
I contacted with few ppl who lifted their jeep liberty .. they told me that the drive shaft are good and I need to cut down front cv axle .. so will try that and will update about it ...
Q note : for 33" tyres I need to regear the back and front diff right ? ( changing the gear and pinion set to 4.88)
Coz I asume on the stock gear ratio 3.73 will run very slow and wont handle 33" tyres

Re: Jeep liberty drive shaft issue
as you like the car that much and insist on it, yes u need to re-gear but dont go tooo high, just the second higher ratio, but my advice sort out the lift issue then try the 33'' tires, from there u can judge to re-gear or leave it as is, take the ladder step by step, to save your money and time.
check with Rashad in Mebar Dxb 04 2661028 or 050 4224535 insist to talk to him in person for this issue, u can use my name also
