Woody has to throw R/C out of the Jeep to save Buzz. The other toys will think he's a murderer and throw him out, too. He'll ride R/C up the street with Scud chasing them, until he lights the rocket tapped to Buzz. They'll fly up, Woody will let go of R/C so he flies into the back, but wait.. I just lit a rocket. Rockets EXPLODE!!! Activate Buzz's wings. He's FLYING! No, he's not flying. He's falling... with style.
In the end, they'll land safely next to Andy. See? They were right there all along.

As for the dents, leave them. Dents give a jeep character!

I had a similar problem when I was installing my cb, I poked a wire above the headliner with a drill bit and it popped a fuse. I believe it is the #9 slot in the fuse block though im not certain. in the picture you posted earlier it is the upper most blue fuse on your block. pull and check this one it was the culprit for my problems.
this is the pic im talking about:

I'm using the factory wiring harness but I matched and crimped the new sterio plug in the old ones place. Yellow factory wire in constant and red factory wire is the accessory and they r both hooked up to radio.

After the no start problem a couple of days ago with the truck that turned out to be a bad ballast connection, I ordered a new one and installed it, even though the old one was probably OK. Better safe than sorry.
I was driving along happy as a lark yesterday in the Cherokee, and all of the sudden it stopped running. Again.
When I got out, there was a slight smell of something burning.
I opened the hood, and after a little investigating, discovered the CPS wire had somehow come loose from it's tywraps (how is that even possible), and fell down on the exhaust pipe.
The heat melted the insulation, and it apparently shorted out on the metal.
Since I had an extra I had bought just in case (imagine that!) I stuck it on, making sure it was as close to the flywheel as possible and tried to start it, but it's a no go.
We finally towed it home. (again)
This crap is getting old.
Another Cherokee friend says it happened to him, and it turned out it fried the computer.
Any suggestions on what I should check before I spend hours troubleshooting?

Put the old one back in, doesn't start. Put the good one in.. start.
So, new CPS, good ECU, and I'm back in business.

Fans will only blow as defroster above 10,000ft of elevation or so. I get back down to 6-7000 and it works properly. Vacuum issues? I believe the selecter runs on vacuum. I can start chasing down cracks. Any easy to replace ones? I'd just throw a few bucks at new parts if it'd help narrow the search.

Alright guys, just hooked up a new stereo in my jeep. And it has no power. I know I got all wires connected correctly. So I check the fuses and my radio/stereo fuse is missing. I pulled out a new fuse and was gonna plug it in but it looks like one of the plugs that the prongs go into is missing. I'm lost, anybody know what's wrong here? Also, the jeep had no stereo in it when I bought it.

fixed it! Turns out the fuse on the right is what was plugged in so I put the fuse on the left in and boom, it works.
