Napa Online for a vacum line kit. $50.00
OR you could just pay 14 bucks for a column in good shape from the Pap...

You'll be fine. $900 for a running cherokee with a lift and 44 rear end (presumably) as a recreation vehicle sounds good. It will be a chance to bond with your local boneyard. Email Chrysler Customer assist for the spec sheet, they got back to me in about a day. http://www.chrysler.com/webselfservi...sler/index.jsp

The front D30 is not a bad axle, I wouldn't be too upset. Just maybe ask for some money back from the guy for faking you out, but ask in a nice way.

Personally, I don't understand why the guy is selling Jeeps if he doesn't know what he has...

Oh it gets worse! The guy had no pink BUT he gives me the transfer without title form that's notarized so I think I'm good. Nope. It's a two page doc and I only had the first page. Can't register it.

Wow, you need to take that thing back and park it in his living room.

Does he seem like he's going to work with you on it?

I have no other option. I don't have the vehicle here because I couldn't drive it without the registration. If it was in my driveway I would have pictures up immediately.

Sorry guys. I'm gonna have to wait to get the Jeep but once it's picked up I'll have pictures.

Yeah, it makes a huge difference but around here he'd be lucky to get 500 bucks for that.
