Odds are you need to take it to the dealership. I couldn't sync the key fob with my '01, and the dealership was asking way too much. I just ended up using the keys.

IIRC, it was $160 for mine at my local stealership. Like I said, I opted to use the keys.

What size relay should I run for KC lights? I'm not sure if they're 100W or 130W, I bought them used and will be making my own harness. Is there one massive relay I can use to run all four, or will I need multiple relays? I plan to run just one switch.
Thanks guys!

Its cheaper to buy a keyless entry kit and either install it yourself or have someone do it. They have viper and python ones on eBay for as low as $35.
I got a tuff country 3.5'' lift on my Jeep Cherokee. Which includes front coil springs, front swaybar endlinks , and for the back, 3.5'' blocks on stock leafs. The jeep has over 70k miles and 7-8 years of it being lifted. The rear leaf springs are know bent the other way. Do I need new leafs, or can I get 3.5 add a leaf, and call it a day,. The jeep does sag out back. So would adding a leaf RESTORE the leaf packs I have.
