    Cherokee vs Grand Cherokee

    well I have put 1200 miles on the GC sense my original post. Im real happy with my purchase but because it is a 2wd I dont really feel like Im "Jeepn" in it. We dont get alot of snow and ice in this area so i will have to wait and see how it will handle on the road in those conditions ?

    Cherokee vs Grand Cherokee

    Thanks for all the input on the grand. I went back to the car lot and drove the gc again just make sure it didnt have any major problems. I used my 1990 cherokee 4x4 as a trade in + 2k and ended up with a 2000 Grand Laredo 4x2 and as most of you have mentioned it is a luxury model compared to...

    96 Jeep Cherokee runs fine then rough, then fine

    had the same problem with my 96 4.0. I let the engine run while I jiggled the wires around the intake and found a wire that was barely making a connection on a quick connect. repaired the bad wire by removing the quick connect and wiring it direct. hope that makes sense.. but it fixed the...

    Cherokee axle vacuum source

    well it was alittle confusing because the t-case bezel has 4wd part time and 4wd full time on it, but the front and rear axles stay the same. I was more interested in any vacum lines because broken cracked or leaking vacum lines can cause poor engine performance.

    So I shouldnt have any vacum lines in my style of 4wd even to the t-case.

    Cherokee axle vacuum source

    Im working on this right now. The t-case lever cover reads from inside the jeep like this.. 2wd hi... 4w part time...4w full time... nuetral...4w low. But the front axle only has a vent hose, not two vacum lines. apparently I dont have a command-trac front alxe and i can only see one hose...

    Cherokee axle vacuum source

    where does the vacum come from, Im sure its from some part of the engine intake but my Chiltens manual dosnt show any vacum line going to my axel vacum motor. I am working on a 1990 cherokee limited. The problem Im having is the jeep wont go into all wheel drive when I put the transfer case...

    AT pan has filler/dip stick tube attached

    As a last ditch effort I tried a crow bar to pull the tube out of the pan .. but nada.. no way:scratch:..They must have a special tool for that at the dealerships :?|I was able to lower the pan by taking the upper tube bracket loose and disconnecting the exhaust pipe at the manifold. It only...

    AT pan has filler/dip stick tube attached

    I see, apparently the previous owner of the jeep had the same problem.. thats why the filter and gasket kit came with the jeep when I purchased it last year. sadly they did a poor job of siliconing the pan back in place. I have the jeeps frame up on jackstands and I hope its high enough that I...

    AT pan has filler/dip stick tube attached

    Yep its a aw4, i hope that means that the front axle's turn all the time. If its baked in there it must be overdone because it dosnt move at all even when I twist and turn the removed AT pan, but it will come loose right ?
