Series : 3in Side Bars SeriesNerf bars get stepped on or pegged by rocks and other road debris. These versatile add-ons perform tough jobs that will eventually take a toll on their quality and appearance if you don't keep them properly maintained. Here are some simple tips on how you can keep your Jeep Liberty nerf bars looking good and functioning excellently:
Like every other part of your car, your nerf bars also need regular cleaning to maintain their best condition. If you let dirt and grime sit too long on the metal surface of your nerf bars, they will eventually make the material more vulnerable to wear and corrosion even if they're made from rust-proof stainless steel. These add-ons are not high-maintenance, and the only time you're probably required to pay extra attention when cleaning them is after taking your Jeep Liberty on an off-road trail.
From powder-coated black to polished stainless steel — nerf bars come in different materials and finishes. Before you use any cleaning and polishing solution, consult your owner's manual first to see which chemicals are compatible with the material that your nerf bars are made of. You should also steer clear from solutions that contain bleach. Mild soap and water is a good way to go if you're looking for a safe and an affordable alternative.
If you have stainless steel nerf bars on your Jeep Liberty, keep their original gleam by polishing them regularly. Put a small amount of polish on a soft cloth and gently buff it onto the surface. Working on small areas at a time will also get the job done more efficiently. It would be better if you do this at a well-ventilated area where the wind and sun can help you dry off the polish quickly.
Rust can weaken your nerf bars and make them look neglected. It's a good thing that you can take care of rust without much difficulty. Simply apply some rust-removing solution over the problem areas and let it sit for a few minutes before scrubbing the rust off with a wire brush. Repaint your nerf bars to keep them from getting corroded again.
Rugged style and added functionality—these are just two of the many perks of installing nerf bars in your Jeep Liberty. These accessories not only make it easier for you to get in and out of your car, but they also give you extra protection against minor collisions and road debris. Because of their heavy-duty function, nerf bars are very susceptible to premature wear and tear. Here are a few of the common problems you're likely to encounter with your Jeep Liberty nerf bars:
Rust
Rust is hard to avoid. It's aggressive and will attack just about anything it can, including your metal nerf bars. This is not unusual considering the highly damaging elements that nerf bars are constantly exposed to. Fortunately, taking care of the rust is just as easy as spotting it. Look for rust bubbles or spots over your nerf bars' surfaces. If you found any, remove it by using a wire brush and a rust dissolver. Always keep in mind that rust should be tended to as soon as possible to keep it from damaging the entire nerf bar.
Abnormal thumping or rattling sound
Have you been hearing unusual thumping or rattling noises while you're driving? One of the potential culprits behind this noise is your nerf bars. To diagnose this problem, check for parts of your nerf bar that are possibly hitting the car's body. There should be enough room between the assembly and the chassis. You can adjust the nerf bar brackets and connectors to have more clearance. Make sure to tighten up the bolts properly after you work on them. You can also grease the connectors to keep them from making noises as you drive.
Incorrect fit
Although this is a very common issue, a lot of people still make the mistake of getting nerf bars that don't fit their Jeep Liberty properly. Whether it is the driver's fault or the distributor's negligence, attaching the incorrect nerf bar on an auto can be dangerous, if not impossible. To prevent this kind of problem, be sure to check the manual that came with the nerf bar to see if its specifications match your car's. You can also talk to its manufacturer to verify if it's compatible with your Jeep Liberty.
