    Default 65,000 Mi.Service

    My 2000 Liberty is in the shop for complete wheels off brake check and service, chasis check, lube and oil chg.& filter service. Brakes checked out good with lots of life left in them. The rear sway bar has linkage at each end. The rubber bushings at the ends were worn to the point of them rattling. the noise in the front end I heard with the road flexing turned out to be upper A Arm rubber bushings being worn bad. Prevost is sending replacement parts. This is a minus for independent front suspension. Oil & filters, lube and water service w/ water cartridge change being done. Air tanks drained and dryer cartridge replaced.

    The wheels are being " Micro Polished " and eight new 315 Michelins will be mounted. New valve stems, balancing for the rear & tag with Centramatics for the front.

    If I overlooked anything please let me know. Send $$$$$$$$$$$$

    Harry,
    'Be sure to have them balance all the tires, even the front tires too, leaving the balancing power of the Centramatica even sweeter. We have them on all axles and love them!! And had all tires balanced 4 years ago and all are doing great!!

    Harry,
    I would change the lower A arms also while everything is apart. They will be the next to go.

    I'm curious the balance master people told me to not pre-balance the tires with weights when using their dynamic balancers. Jim are you suggesting you balanced with weights and then added centramatics (or balance masters) ??

    Harry, you made my day with the new tires! We were all worried about you and Shirley.
