Default Got me a 2000 Jeep Cherokee

I had a 1999 Jeep Cherokee new off a lot, and for some reason traded it a couple years later. Been regretting it ever since. Finally was able to get back into one today, a 2000. She ain't perfect, needs some work, but she's all mine!

Welcome!
JMO, make replacing everything in the cooling system your first priority.

Here is a start, you don't have to worry about upgrading, the replacement stuff (radiator, water pump, thermostat...) from Advance Auto or wherever is fine.

Any questions just use the search (barely acceptable because it will return a thousand hits without an answer) or post up in tech.

Thanks! Got the A/C recharged today. It's nice and cold now. Need to replace the seats and track down a slight alignment issue (??) as it seems to want to drift right every so often. Not sure why though. Doesn't feel like what a vehicle out of alignment does. Isn't drifting consistently.

Second thing on your agenda after the cooling system should be rebuilding the front end. If you're keeping it stock all can be replaced for around $350-$400.
