Watch out, them cheap Jeeps eat money fast! I picked my '86 up for $300 and I really, really, really don't want to think about how much money I have in it at this point. Is this your first Cherokee?

First cherokee. I owned a grand cherokee for a day but traded it for a mustang. I'm not too worried about money I really don't have any bills. Won't be my daily driver by any means so it can be parked for weeks at a time if needed.
I already know what jeep stand for Just empty every pocket...

If you park them in the back 9 of your property and leave 'em be, they don't cost anything.

The weather sucks this winter. The Farmer's Almanac said it was going to be a bitter winter this year and damn if it wasn't spot on.

My buddy supposidly has a drive shaft for one, so I'm waiting for him to get back to me when he can get to his shop. Otherwise junkyard it is!
They were determined, Tim was saying it was the ballast before I even bought it so that was the first thing they checked. Not even half way to work I get a snapchat of them driving it sent to me.

Just bypass the ballast, that's what I did and never looked back or had problems. The ballast just goes from 12v at start up to 10v to keep the noise of the fuel pump down.
