I don't do any radical wheeling anymore, mostly used for hunting and running around on dirt roads and farm fields. I do need tire chains for snow from time to time when I go to Colo. for Elk hunting. Probably won't run anything larger than 31's.

I have a 89 shortbed that is basically stock. It has 2" risers on the front springs to level it. I am going to lift it with a 3" hellcreek kit and at the same time, install a 8.8 with 3.73 gears and LS. I'm not sure what I want to do to the front axle, but I'm thinking either re-gear (it has 3.07's I think) to 3.73 to match the rear, or replace the whole axle with one that already has the right gears.I will probably install a lunch box locker at the same time. I am thinking of a newer axle without the CAD if I go that way. There is a local guy that is selling a non-disco axle, complete, for $275. Either way, I plan on new TRE's and anything else that is loose. I would appreciate you guys thoughts on this. Thanks.

The window regulator on my 89 (driver side) quit working and of course its in the down position. It's a manual crank. Will a regulator from a cherokee work, and if it will, what years ? Thanks for the help.

You can buy these new. I got mine from Auto-Zone. The temp sensor is: Wells TU 108 Oil pressure sensor is: Duralast PS 133

Personally, I'd sell it and look for a 4X4. There is an awful lot of work (and expense) if you can't do the work youself. If you're going to do it, a donor cherokee might be a good place to start.
