pretty much all the Cherokees ive owned have had it sag down and need to be replaced. i dk if its because of the heat where i live or age :dunno: I'm betting if anyones dosent have it the PO ripped it off after having it fall my cheap alternative to fixing mine was taking it to my local high school body shop and having the kids work on it for free even though i know its only about $15 to replace and about 1 hr of work

Mine came with the headlight harness attached and it just plugs right in...very easy Cool i guess ill go to the yard and see if its still there and not crushed

Looks Great! also i was curious what was involved for the front clip swap? i think i might have found a donor do i need a harness? i started to look for a writeup but no luck or maybe I'm not looking in the right place :hmm:

what area of south texas you from? i live in austin and have family down south and often go visit perhaps we can meet up and admire trucks

texas.. am in the right place???

i would check also the oil filter adapter ring/gasket makes a big mess down there around the rear oilpan area i was pretty sure i had a bad rear main seal and all it took was a 2 dollar seal on the oil filter adapter

didn't panic then, but home for me is a border town down south so I'm mostly worried about the spread from mexico

is anybody as worried as me?

its not a older than a 90 so 91 and up not sure up until when they mad the 2.5 as i am completely unfamiliar with them

ok so my cousin has a 2.5 that shows symptoms of a bad alternator and she asked me to replace it anybody know how hard it is to take it off and on (time/ difficulty/ tools)?

Did you know New Belgium gives out free samples at the brewery.....I got some free samples today. Jealous much? I like hoppy beers too, but not bitter beers, you should try some New Belgium Mighty Arrow, its a pale ale has a nice hoppy flavor but is not bitter at all, made with amarillo hops, and its @#$% delicious. yes i have had some mighty arrow and i liked it :drool: , though i like the bitterness makes for a crisper taste and i have heard too manys stories from CO and all the breweries (my roomate/cousin lived there for about 5 years) I read once before about you mentioning the belgium brewery and was jealous then o well here in austin we have a few breweries that arnt too bad

I am a hop head fav all around beer is sierra nevada Pale Ale if I'm back home my favorite beer is corona from mexico on the beach i like new belgium's sunshine wheat when I'm wrenching on the MJ anything cold will do :cheers: :cheers:

i agree I'm always looking for some way to waste time http://bevomara.mybrute.com

this is my first DIY writeup so bear with me after having all my tools stolen from me I decided to make my toolbox just a little harder to get into (damn thieves used a pry bar and my vice grips i had stashed under my seat to bend the hell out of my toolbox lid giving them enough leverage to force the stock POS latch right off) :fs1: :fs1: :fs1: :fs1: here is my toolbox (rather common style) my first idea was to put a padlock with a latch like ive seen on so many trucks I decided against this because it allows easier angles for someone to pry the latch off What I did do is I bolted a chain to the lid of my toolbox and ran it down through my toolbox in between the box and the truck bed and pad locked it there Supplies: (for both sides) 2 carriage bolts (so they cannot be tampered with from the outside) with 6 matching nuts 4 washers 2, 1 foot pieces of chain (size is up to you0 2 padlocks (the larger the better :brows: ) a drill with a bit large enough to make a hole large enough for chain to fit and last, a tube of some rubber sealant/ weather stripping maker stuff I found at the parts store Step one: measure and mark off the top of the lid where you plan to bolt the chain up and the bottom of the box where you plan on running the chain through make sure you measure it so that the chain can fall straight down through the bottom of the box Step two: Take your drill and make holes on the top and the bottom *take note the the carriage bolt has a square section under the smooth round head (i drilled 4 small holes and one larger one in the middle creating somewhat of a square) *also for the bottom consider you plan on running the chain down and locking it so make the hole small enough for just the chain to slip past, (i drilled 4 holes in the shape of a cross +) ((looking for PIC)) Step three: A - Set bolt for the chain using the rubber weather stripping maker apply the rubber stuff around the hole one top of the toolbox, then bolt it on using one washer and one nut B - attach chain to bolt under lid using the following order *bolt-rubber-box lid-washer-nut-chain-washer-2bolts(just in case) and then were done! :banana: simply run the chain down through the box and lock it up the location in my opinion is harder to get bolt cutters in and if you use a BFlock its gonna be pretty hard to get it through the bottom if someone trys to pry it open thank you!
