New to Jeep need a little help
So yesterday I bought my first Jeep (kinda unintended but I like it) its a '95 Jeep Cherokee Country and its CLEAN BUT there a couple small things I had to fix the head light switch,I need to fix the headliner,it could use a tune up BUT my 2 problems right now are A. my blinkers arent working but my hazards are (a wireing diagram would be great) and B. my radio isnt working (the radio itsself is a pile of ...... but if i pull the radio out and hook it straight to the batt. it lights up (doesnt work cause its a pile but it gets elc.) so Iam thinking there is a fuse I have over looked possibly for both, Iam not sure, I havent gotten the chance to pick up a Hayes or Chiltons yet I looked at napa today and all they had was 1 for a grand cherokee (like I said Iam new so I dont know the diffrence yet, Iam used to dealing with diesels). Any way I'd appreciate the help and I'll get pic.s posted up shortly.

Had the same problem with the flashers on my Jeep. More than likely it's the turn signal flasher. I'd check the fuses first, but the flasher is pretty easy. Dunno how it is on a 95, but on my 99 you just pull off the knee guard and it's back under there.

Ya I need a wireing diagram cause I looked back in there, and theres a fuse block and a place to plug in 1 of the round flashers (typical $1 flasher) BUT theres no flasher there...... maybe Iam thinking TO far out of the box and this is my problem lol.

30x9.5x15 is about the biggist you can do stock. But with a little lift you can do 31's. if it rubs its most likly ganna be the lower control arm. Welcome to CF

Some people say they ran 31s with it stock but will rub at full turn. I wouldnt go off roading untill you get a fit though. I would say 3 inchs would be ideal but if its just mostly street then maby 2inchs.

I would go 3 core. Well your doing it right. Just get all the fluids changed out and just start from the top and ger it running good and it will last forever. Dont forget to do the diff fluids and tcase. I run a 3.5 inch lift and love it. Ya sometimes I want more but after about 3 you start having to do alot more for just an inch more. lol

It all depends on what you plan on doing with your jeep. Mine is a daily driver that I'll occasionally wheel on the weekends, but nothing too wild. There aren't any rocks on my end of NC, so clearance isn't a huge issue. I've got no lift on my 93 with 31x10.5 all terrain tires. They don't have huge shoulder lugs, so the don't rub at full turn. No flares and some fender trimming are required but you can make it look good.
