- This video shows how I replaced the rear axle seals and the pinion seal in a 2006 Jeep Liberty.
This is a little more advanced than basic maintenance and more time consuming, but what a joy to not have drips on the garage floor!!

Awesome video. Very detailed and informative. I was waiting for a call back for a quote from the mechanic. Was on the fence on doing this job myself. But your video definitely removed any doubts and removed the intimidation factor,so I will be replacing the wheel seals myself on my 05 liberty.
That's great! Thanks for the comment! Have fun with your project!!
Superb video! I've watched a thousand of these sorts of help videos, and your's is the gold standard.
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words! Merry Christmas!!
It was a big help since I'm going to be replacing a broken wheel stud and doing both the E-brake, and rear brakes while I have this whole thing apart.
Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching, I appreciate the comment. Have fun with your project!!
Thank You! Pretty standard stuff but NEVER hurts to review. My son's new Gal Pal has a Jeep that needs some love to continue motoring along.
Thanks for watching! Great comment!!
Man, great video....your level of details is beyond impressive. I Have a Jeep Cherokee 2009 that I need to get the pinion seal replaced, not the same vehicle but your tips are overall welcome for any job. Thank you very much.
Thank you for the comment! Have fun with your project!
The best video I found on this project. Thanks so much!!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching and taking the time to leave a comment!!
It’s a amazing video with so in-depth details . Love the kindergarten comment. I learned so much from this video . Hope to work on my 05 liberty. Thank you
Thank you! I appreciate the comment!
Thanks so much for the info. The details helped me to take an overwhelming problem and feel confident in doing it right the first time. Very pleased with the results. Again thank you for the expertise. Awesome video......

Hi, This is one of the best HOW TO tutorial. You did a great job and very helpful.
Thank you! I appreciate the comment!!
FANTASTIC video. Thanks for the effort on this one!
Thank you for watching! I appreciate the comment!!
I am just about to tackle my 04 jeep liberty renegade 5 speed manual 4x4 rear end seals and its making a pretty mean grinding noise since running differential dry on oil so I'm a little scared what exactly what I'm going to find when I remove the rear differential cover but other than that concern with mine I really think you did a great job of explaining what tools were needed to use along the way and I liked how you used the paint marker to mark parts so they were able to be put back the same as removed very straight forward easy to understand video along with some specs to help give an idea of what torque bolts and nuts should be tightened to thank you
Thanks for watching! I appreciate the comment!! Hope your project goes goes well!
Very good explanation and video!! Thank you so much!
Thank you for watching! I appreciate the comment!!
Very nicely narrated! Great job! 👍🏼😎
Thank you for watching! I appreciate the comment!!
Best liberty video’s
Thanks for watching! I appreciate the comment!!
Amazing video. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. I appreciate the comment!!
Thank you for the detailed instructions. I'm wondering about the rotating torque required for the pinion nut. The 2005 Jeep KJ Service Manual says "Rotating torque should be equal
to the reading recorded during removal plus an additional
0.56 N·m (5 in. lbs.)." Are you recommending 10 in. lbs.?
Great video. Good job!
Excellent video
Thank you! I appreciate the comment!!
Supper helpful!! Thank you

Excellent video! Thanks!

I did it! Finally got it finished in the snow.
Now, once I hit about 40mph I hear a droning sound. Almost sounds like wind blowing. I think this is indicating my bearing is also bad now? Do you happen to have a video of that repair as well?
No, only needed to change the seals.
Nice video! Thank you!!! What kind seal grease or lubricant did you use on flange?
Just a bit of the same gear lube is good for lubing the seal. Thanks for watching and leaving a question!
Can you do a video on replacing all the bearings next? Great video!
I will if it needs it. I'm hoping with good maintenance and lubricants the bearings will hold up for a long time! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!!
Nicely done video thx😎👍
Thank you! I appreciate the the comment!!
hello, great vid! have this type jeep kj axle inner seals ? thx 😅
There are three seals on the rear axle/differential. One each on the outboard where the axle passes through on the left and right, and one on the differential pinion. Thanks for watching and leaving a question!
Great video and very very helpful. Curious why the rotational torque is original + 10inlbs. Because of the previously crush bearing? Thankyou for this video.
That was the instructions from the service manual for the preload on the tapered bearing. The original crush sleeve was reused. 2+ years ago now and still going strong. And best of all no leaks! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!!
Part number for that pinion seal? 🙈
Great video, thank you
Thank you for watching and leaving a comment!!
also im kind of confused. at 15:53 you say it was originally at 8lbs, but you're bringing it up to 18lbs after? could you explain why i need to increase it by 10lbs? thank you.
That's the increase in torque required to turn the pinion before and after tightening the nut. 10 inch pounds. From 8 to 18 inch pounds in this example. It's a small amount thus requiring the sensitive dial torque wrench and consistent application to determine the small increase in torque. Hope that helps.
@@midwestsynthetic pinion nut is stuck, about ti impact that off today. my drag reading was a meager 2lbs, so following this video it would need to be increased to 12inlbs drag.
I think this would be a good time to change the wheel bearing also. But that's for a different video.
Is this with or without replacing the crush sleeve because I’m not getting near that torque reading. If I go over 100 it feels like it gets hard to turn and feels like it catches. Also takes 30 in/lbs to move
This is using the existing crush sleeve.
if only doing the rear pinion seal, do i need to remove the wheels and such? i dont se any need but wanna make sure
If you're using a sensitive torque wrench to set the preload it could affect the reading by increasing drag due to force needed to get the wheels to move as well as brake drag.
@midwestsynthetic ahhh gotcha! Yeah that's the part I'm most worried about is all the sensitive torque settings.
@midwestsynthetic what about removing the rear axle as you did? Same thing?
In the process of doing this. Trying to get the pinion nut off now. I checked several times, and all 10 times it reads the drag as 2inlbs. I feel that is extremely low compared to yours..
im having a horrible time with this project. i replaced.the wheel seal and put back together and now i have a bad grinding noise coming from somewhere
Thank you for the video. I APPRECIATE YOU.
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
Did you use RTV for the penion Seal?
Do you have a part number to the rear axle seal by chance?
No, sorry, didn't save that. I would have gotten them from Rock Auto, which has a bunch of manufacturers and part numbers. Thanks for checking out the vid!
God damnit. There goes Saturday...
HA a Saturday I've been working on this shit for three days. All I can say is the jeep liberty is a fuck show to work on most vehicles are these days but this on is bad.
