The police one may have heavy duty suspension, rear end, charging system and towing package...Tj

I Have a 2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ Police package ...and I have 10" drums vs. the 9" drums...heavy duty cooling and tran cooler....extended idle button (raises the idle 250rpm)...I think it has a heavier duty springs.

Not sure what else there may be for difference to a non police XJ.

OH...and rubber flooring...instead of carpet.

Quoted for truth.....

With Cherokees there wasn't a 'standard' police package like some other vehicles.

There were a list of options a department could add to whatever Cherokee they wanted. I looked at one some time ago at an auction that had the limited leather seats in the front.. but a hard plastic bench for a seat in the back....
