Chrysler's been putting their incompetent slushboxes in Grand Cherokees since mid-1993 model year

Great write up. I'm going full out and am going to cut and weld so I can just bolt the whole ZJ power seat bracket to the stock XJ seat mount bolts.

I thought the fully mechanical 46RH wasn't half bad. My 44RE seemed good while I was driving it. IDK if it had ever been replaced or anything like that but it had 160000 on the clock.

pretty happy about it! but damn was this thing heavy.
How the hell did you carry a Chrysler 8.25 through a junkyard, I could barely move mine 10 feet on flat ground.

On those sales, moving it through the gate is usually the requirement

The yard I go to sometimes has $75 all you can fit in a wheel barrow sale, I've never really taken advantage of it but one day I plan on grabbing some zj/wj seats and other junk, they have over 20 grand cherokees last I checked.

Well finished cleaning the C101 connector actually runs noticeably better and did an FI service with the motor medic system and it sucks I definitely would not recommend it

You knew I sold it. I got lazy and cold when I did my lift back in January in the snow.
