Thumbs up Its fixed!!!

Its finally fixed!! The problem i had with my jeep cutting off when i turned right was... the steering column... yeah never would have guessed... buddy up at nissan said chevys had a problem with it and i probly did to... just enough torque on the column turning right for my little ignition rod to pull away and turn it off... started my jeep... pulled hard on the steering wheels and WAM!! it cut off... I jsut thought my tilt was broke but he says theres bolts in the that come loose and need to be tightened... tilt and cutting off with be fixed! Even let me borrow his little tool to pull the pins out of the side to get to them... Thanks alot you guys for the advice on things to try but it turned out to be alittle weirder... 1 month later

Makes sense if Chevys had the problems since I believe Cherokee columns are the same that was in the S-10 Blazers and Jimmys.
