hey guys, so ive been busy a little bit. Cherokees up 3inches, jkur hard rock shocks are awesome, and i think they are perfectly valved for the Cherokees weight anyways. i installed a fan switch, so now i got full manual control of my fan now which is awesome for offroading. A/C works found that out. the bad is i need shackle relocation brackets in the rear, i dont like the shackle angle. still need new track bar, snorkle, new lowercontrol arm bushing for the rough country fixed control arms. ummm still need to patch a few holes and bedline floor boards. i want to go to 33s now. just a list of stuff. it never ends.


Also need to test if the voltage regulator is actually bad in the pcm. so i can go back to the factory voltage regulator.

Been going through some water lately due to heavy rains and my love of offroading now I'm getting a squeak from the drive shaft... It lessens when I let off the gas.. Maybe a universal joint or unit bearing? Any suggestions on how to pin point it by myself? Thanks... Hope everyone had a safe weekend

I think your centering ball might be worn out...
You can replace them

I’m from Lehigh, but work in the NFM area. Just picked up 97 sport. I’ll be down for some riding once I get it registered, and get some time from work to install my lift, wheels, and tires.
