A while back I posted about a Cherokee I would be getting following a death in the family. It was in a remote area 130 miles away and had to be moved to a safer place pronto before it got stolen or trashed. It's a straight 6 with Aisin transmission. It is a 1995.
I was able to get it going. The oil was low and needed changing but I could not budge the drain plug. I will need to go back there again with my half-inch socket drive--is the drain plug metric or SAE? For now I topped it off with fresh oil just to be able to relocate the vehicle. ATF was low but looked and smelled good so just added fluid.
Top hinge on driver door is completely loose and door sags down but I can't fix that where it is and I'll just have to climb in the pass door for now.
So--thanks for the previous help and my main problem now is getting the oil drain plug loose, and I'd like to know the socket size for it.

alot of them get replaced over time so its anyones guess, and did u drive 130 miles with only 1 socket???
I had box wrenches with me that seemed to be a close fit on the drain plug but I couldn't get enough leverage which is why I'll take my half inch drive set with me next time.
But i still need to know if it's SAE or metric, the only half-inch sockets I have now are SAE.
