depends on what gears you have in there right now, i believe the threshold is 3.73 and up, so if you have 3.73, you shouldn't have to

 

I have a plain Jane Cherokee. Everything is OEM. No lift. Maybe I hit
something, but I don't recall doing so. That's why I want to find somebody that know what to look for. Thanx for your help

Well my tie rod end that I order were supposed to be here today, but prob won't get here until Saturday which blows. I was hoping to have it aligned tomorrow. I hope they get here tomorrow so I can drop it off for Saturday.

 

So the tracking info was off and my tie rod ends showed up. After getting them in and heading get it align I was told that my control arm bushing were so bad that after I replaced them next week I'd be bringing it back. So I decided to wait.

See Cliff is a good guy. And he said bring whatever you got that needs to be aligned and he will get it done.

As I was typing this the doorbell rang and Fed Ex dropped off my CB radio and Bushings. I will have a full day ahead of me tomorrow. I hope I can get it done with enough time to get it aligned.

 

lol, one of the things i mentioned, what are the odds

seems like Cliff's a great guy though. good luck on the bushings man!

 

26 to new years eve I'll be back in the morning

 

Ok need a little help. Ive changed all the bushing for both lower control arms, no problems there. Finished the passenger side upper, no problems there. Now for the driver side upper control, here is my problem, the axle mount came off easy and I changed that bushing. The body mount is unbolted but the bolt will not come out. I took it half way out and it will not go any further. It is loose and has play but will not come out. I tried using my BFH to no avail. Any suggestions?

Also I took the day off to finish this and mount my winch. It just showed up.

 

So have we set a day for next week? I should have my alignment done tomorrow and I'll have my winch done this weekend.

 

I just got my winch and my bumpers on the way

 

The upper c.a. bolts go through the frame, and I know I always had a harder time getting the uppers bolt out, wigglin the c.a. while lining up the bolt to pull it out of the slot. Only other thing I can think of is rust deposits inside the nudging eleven and the bolt, so it may be jamming up on the way out?

 

My Dad may have to head out for work the day after Christmas, if he does, we may end up doin it on Sunday, but still don't know. If yall have any specific day in mind, post it up, and ill c if I'm down.

 

Well I'm ready to go. Got my TRE and bushing all done. Got it aligned, winch mounted and all setup. Sorry about your dad possibly having to work. I know I have to too at least I don't go in till 6 and I can push that back by a few anyway. Really Sunday is a better day for me, sorry to say.


Oh and while at Ace Hardware today I walk out and see this. If I hadn't been in a rush I would have turned mine around for a better photo op.

 

Sunday it is then! Any day works good for me, so what was keeping the bolt in on your upper c.a.?

 

I'm not sure what was holding it in. I ended up drilling it out after three hours of jacking with it. I really didn't want to but I had no choice. I checked the threads and the bushing. No reason for it to be stuck, especially when it was so loose in there.
