Once the large center nut is loose then you can take your rotor off. Then on the back side of the knuckle there are (3) star headed bolts that you remove to pull the Hub Assembly from the knuckle. Loosen those three bolts a good ways but don't pull them all the way out. Now just set your socket on the head of the star bolt and use a hammer to hit them. This will push the Hub Assembly from the knuckle. Once the Hub Assembly is free from the knuckle you can now finish unscrewing those (3) star bolts. And your done. Reassembly is just backwards from this, except for hitting on those star bolts Lol just screw those back on to reattach your Hub to the knuckle. Hope you understood all that.
Done and done.

I'm pretty sure the mounts for the older ones are closer together or the other way around.

So was it pretty easy after you did it. Wasn't hard at all was it. Unless the Hub gave you some trouble coming free from the knuckle. That's usually the only trouble spot. But the socket and hammer trick usually takes care of that.

[QUOTE=aquickmopar;1099534]Hey Cherokee fans. I just wanna know who all is on here in the Fredericksburg and surrounding counties area. That way when I don't have any wheeling trips planned and im just cruising around the area I can get to know a few of you and maybe we all can help each other out wrenching if need be. So post up if your in the 'Burg or surrounding area and a pic of the cherokee.



I'll go first, Im Tony, and im from Fredericksburg, currently residing in caroline county.


96 Cherokee Classic, 6.5" Lift on 33x12.50's
