Default 2.5L Needs a new rad

I need to replace the rad on my 2.5 4cyl 1998 cherokee and wondering what else I should/need to do at the same time? Water pump was replaced 2 years ago. Fan clutch sometime before that. Should I get a new thermostat, temp sensor and/or hoses? Also this will be my first time doing this any pointers? Thanks

Degree you have/need.. You mean thermostat?

Regarding what to change. While many will say replace it all while there I must admit to being a cheap hard-head. If its not broke, why throw more money at it. Replace what has obviously failed. Save for the next rainy day.

Thanks. Yes I was talking bout the thermostat, does anybody have an idea what degree setting came stock on the 2.5l? Anything else I should get before the install, my house like many others isn't located near a parts store
