Quote: Cherokee front wheelbearings do not have to be pressed, they are unit bearings they unbolt and bolt back on... real easy. The bearings themself can cost $70-$130 each depending on where you get your parts.
thank you!!!!! any idea where i can find these? do u think i could have a guy friend who is mechanically inclined do it or go to a shop?

Welcome! YOU GOT A HECK OF A DEAL.

Whoever sold you that for $500 must've been crazy lol. You will have alot of fun in that Jeep, and I'm sure those CT winters won't even phase you. Those bearings and exhaust are a simple fix, but I'd take it to a shop. The 4.0s in these Jeeps will last a long time (I'm sure that's what it has. 6 cylinder). If it was to die on you, another 4.0 engine can be had for like $500-1000 and will last a long time. I'd just keep it.

I think you could do it as long as you had the socket to get the nut off.
