Default Pre-Camping season maintance/repairs

I am getting the old 99 Cherokee ready for camping and hunting season. My list of Dos are:

1. Starter.....it been giving me that "oooohhh I can't do it whine, it so hard

2. Water pump and hoses

3. Clean the air intake

4. Transmission cooler lines from the radiator to trans x2 I believe

Since you all definitely reduced my heartache on things like the sway bar link....really Chrysler....a tork bolt that does not turn!!!! I think they are just F'in with us.

If there any tips or advice that you can pass along on any but especially on how hard and any special techniques for trans cooler lines would be appreciated.

Remember to do a complete tune up, and Oil Change. Test your antifreeze. Testers are cheap, but effective. Check tires, etc.

Grease the greaseables! U-Joints, slip joints, steering, etc. Also make sure to top up the blinker fluid.
