SOURCE: how to replace rear brake pads on 2005 jeep liberty

put the back of car on jack stands and secure the front tires so it does not roll and then remove the bolts off the back of the caliper there is normally two one at top and one at bottom and spray it with some kind of oil for rust and make sure you have the right size socket before you try to loosen them and once caliper is off and the old pads removed take one of the old pads and squeeze the piston on the caliper back in by using a "C" clamp and also remove some of the brake fluid from the master cylinder before you do this put the new ones back on and check the brake fluid and make sure it is full and then pump the brakes to make sure you have a good pedal also put some "No Squeak" brake stop on the back of the pads so they don't squeak they will have that where you buy the pads from

I changed rear bearings on a jeep liberty 2006.and now it wont go in 2 wheel drive any answers.

"The Liberty is available with either a part-time Command-Trac or full-time Selec-Trac transfer case."

which one?
do you have , and are very much different.

the part time only shifts on dirt or ice.
are you on dry pavement, if yes, raise the rear axle again
and shift into 2H.
4H an 4L are for iCe roads or dirt only,
or it winds up and binds up,..

selec-trac has a center differential. and does not do that above tricks.(has others...)

I have an oil leak between the drivers rear axel and the tire. What parts do I need to look into replacing?

You should be ok replacing the outer seal but check for bearing play or fautly outer wheel bearing before you disassemble. If to much lateral movement in axle shaft it will take out your new seal rather quickley.
