Thumbs up New here (East of Denver)

Hello all,

Newbie here.

I picked up a 99' Cherokee Sport, auto, I-6/4.0L.

I just installed: front universal joints (x2), wheel/hub bearings (x2), upper ball joints (x2), lower ball joints (x2), tie rods (x4), steering dampener, rotors (x2), front brake pads, calipers (x2).

Todays alignment showed a -1.6 camber on the front right. I guess I'll go back in and put a +1.5 camber offset balljoint in.

Now she needs new tires. Previous owner left me with a mismatched tires which are also mismatched sizes if you can believe that.

I'll have to find time to use the dye/black light to ensure my senses are correct about a rear valve cover gasket leak (famous Cherokee leak?).

The body is is rust free with some gentle dings and dongs. Interior is excellent.

I'm also working on a 58' CJ-5 (******). A 51' ******-Overland wagon awaits in the wings for attention.

Looking forward to chatting to you all. I'm sure I'll learn a crap-load.
