I bought the High Performance Jeep Cherokee XJ Builders Guide 1984-2001. After just skimming thru it seems to have some really good how-tos and other good info.
I also found out my 2000 Freedom Edition is 1 of 2821! Not bad considering 165,590 XJs were built that year.
Great lists of dimensions and what axles, trans, transfercases and gears came in what.
Im sure it will make some great "Office" reading
I know that this book by NO means makes me an expert but Ill be more prepared when I buy my Lift/Wheels/Tires.

What are you talking about?



To the OP: I highly recommend that book for anybody entering the XJ world. Its a good book and very educational, not to mention the guy that wrote it is a very good guy.

I just thought there was going to be more DIY performance stuff. Like maybe IAT sensor relocation, electric fan you know afternoon projects. But it still has some good info.
