Welcome to the forum!
i just deleted the bottle without having to replace the radiator. https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f58/ho...-delete-38204/
if you dont have one already you should think about getting a 3 row radiator.

If you have a closed system meaning you dont have a radiator cap on the rad, and your just go to a over flow tank and not the pressurized bottle you will most likely overheat, Your system has to build pressure to function properly if you go to my profile I show how i changed mine to the 91 and newer open system for 60 bucks from the jy. Its better to have the open system in california , besides it cost 50 bucks to buy the new pressurised bottle and then bleeding the system is a huge pain. My recommendation upgrade to the open system.
