Those flat rate boxes are probably the only thing keeping the post office open anymore.But back on topic if you start small like leaf spring bolts or all bolts you remove to go a lift might be good options then have bigger kits,But are these american made bolts or that cheap china junk that says grade 8 and i can snap with a ratchet and hands lol
I think a master kit is a good idea. for someone tackling a major rebuild some of those bolts could be life savers.
but as said above I think smaller kits are the way to start out. the leaf spring bolt kits are a great idea. I would buy a set. another kit could be front control arm hardware. shock hardware. maybe even diff cover bolts. ive seen some super nasty half rusted away diff cover bolts before

Just created a sale post for all these kits, feel free to go check them out! https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f74/ne...0/#post3426167
I dont know if you have seen them, but for motorcycles they sell small kits called track packs with the most commonly lost or broken bolts when out on a ride.

what i'm getting at is determine which bolts most commonly break or get a sample of bolts and nuts that hold all the important stuff on.
when out on the trails, have a small kit ready made $20-35 depending on how big it needs to be. just a thought.
Cherokee trail pack? you could call it

Hey guys, I am considering marketing complete hardware kits on here for our cherokees.
After seeing companies charge $40 for just a handful of front bumper bolts, I decided to piece together my own kits. They would be very reasonably priced, and come with every single bolt you can possibly think of underneath your cherokee.
Suspension, steering, etc. Front bumper, rear bumper, control arms, leaf springs, shackles, shocks, EVERYTHING would be included in this grade 8 hardware package.
If I do end up posting some for sale, do you guys think it would be of interest to anyone?
