And Welcome to CF!

Good afternoon, I am another proud Jeep Cherokee owner. I want to fix the evaporator and heater cores in my 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4x4 myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

ol' blue, thanks for the PM with tech pages.
I'm looking at parts now online.
Has anyone ordered parts from jeepair.com? They have good prices, just not sure if they are higher quality parts. Other than the evaporator, I was going to replace the accumulator dryer, the liquid line, and discharge hose. Should I do this or not bother? Any thoughts on a preemptive replacement of the heater core, since it's all opened up? What about the high pressure and cycling switches?
Just trying to have the parts lined up before I jump into this, hopefully over the long holiday weekend coming up.
final question. I attempted a quick fix with some leak stop stuff. The mechanic I used to take it to, before I moved, didn't typically recommend that stuff but applied it at my request. Any issues with the system as a result of adding this?
thanks again.
