Default do we have cabin filters?

If so, where is it, and how difficult to change?

Oh, XJ is what I'm asking about

Which, I mean, isn't that hilarious? A vehicle meant to be used offroad, with no cabin air filter? But I drive with my doors off or my windows down and dirt leaks in through the rust holes, anyway, so I guess if I'd wanted something airtight I'd have purchased something very different.

If you feel the need to filter the air that enters the vehicle, then you should stay in your bubble and stay out of the wilderness. Learn to live with pulling dirt clods out of your nose on an hourly basis.

A bit harsh, don't you agree? It was a simple question. Maybe a family member has respiratory issues and it's a DD which would make his question very important.....

This is obvious tongue-in-cheek sarcasm, and at its finest. Anyone who took this seriously needs an adjustment to that stick up their 8.25.

Hi Big. I checked out some of the threads you started. Using your logic it would be quite easy to shred you for the questions you posed: Like hey...I can't find my Jeep on Rock Auto! What's up????

The thing I like about this forum is that MOST get along without the empty headed "pile on the easy target" BS.

It is really nice to ask a question and get a civil answer. GET IT?

By the way...isn't this the OEM UNMODIFIED Cherokee Tech??? I believe it is generally accepted the factory didn't put out a tube door 38 inch tire model. And who said everyone that drives an XJ goes to the "wilderness". So what's next then: You start shredding the guy that has an AC question?
