You're going to be pretty hard pressed to get anybody else in Western Washington on the Cherokeeforum to help you this Saturday. This weekend is the North American XJ Association NAXJA Northwest Chapter's Octoberfest down at Evans Creek. Pretty much everybody who 4wheels a Cherokee will be there.

Well, you guys have been properly excused because as we all know and agree on, David (work) and Alex(family) both come before wheeling. I expect both of you to be in Walker on the 6th for Alex's Birthday Run!! No excuses!

Gonna try to knock this out today (Fri)...Sending a PM David.
I have most of the tools needed, but am not sure where to find the T60 Torx Key for the OFA...seems like the largest key most brick/mortar places sell is T55...any thoughts??

Been chasing down parts most of the day...
Found the L-style T60 at O'Reilly's, thankfully, so I can at least get the oil change and OFA o-rings replaced.
Found shims/center pins, but it looks like I'm going to need to find longer U-bolts...Should I just get 1/2" regardless of what's in there now, or would 1/2" fit if the originals happen to be 7/16"? (Would rather not have to remove and run to parts store)
edit* -- One more newb question...What's the difference between grade5 and grade 8 hardware? Will grade 5's work?
