Every Cherokee owner needs one of these.

Its a book called: Jeep cherokee builder guide

I was cleaning up the other day and forgot I even had this. If you plan on doing any mods to your XJ this book pretty much covers it all. I think I got mine for around $25 bucks, it has full color photos and good discriptions of all kinds of stuff.

You can get them for around $17 on amazon.

I would love to get one on Amazon, but I just ordered my Three Wolf and One Moon shirt from there and don't want to pay for more shipping. Maybe next paycheck...

Most book stores can order it if it is not already in stock. It may be more expensive than Amazon, but should not have shipping charges.

Moved to Cherokee Chat since it's really not a tech related question..

Although I do agree if everyone bought one of these when they got a Cherokee they'd answer so many questions. I got mine and boy is it a wealth of info. You can buy them off amazon for around $25 and it's well worth it.

Agreed, have had mine since I started working on this XJ and it was a really big help. As other have stated, EricXJ is a swell guy. If you have any questions about the book or something in it he is always open to to answer questions in PM's.
