    91-95, Cherokee Briarwood spotted

    I have one, a 92. It's just an "upgraded" interior with fake wood. Kind of like a Country with leather. Unless someone knows something I don't.

    Another shock question (sorry)

    Thanks, that's what I was thinking/hoping.

    Another shock question (sorry)

    I've searched, and I can't determine the answer to my question. I lifted my XJ about 2". I have OME springs in front and some custom springs in back. I kept the Monroe Relex shocks I had before the lift. The ride was never very good, but now it feels very harsh, like there is too high...

    Suspension 101?

    Hello all, I have a 92 4.0, aw4 I have read many threads about different clunks. I'm sure the clunk that I have is one of those, but I would like to know how to tell the difference between a control arm bushing clunk, a ball joint clunk, or some sort of tie rod clunk. The clunk I have happens...

    I need a lesson in suspension and axles

    Thanks! I would really love to be able to do this work on my own. However, one (or both) of two things usually happen. 1. I realize I am in over my head after I have taken everything apart 2. I need a special tool of some sort that is not available anywhere. Which means I am royally pissed and...

    I need a lesson in suspension and axles

    I have a 92 XJ, with the HO 4.0, of course. 90% of the time I just use it for commuting, but the other 10% I seem to be testing the limits of the stock componentry. I recently visited the Michigan sand dunes. I was very impressed with how well my stock XJ handled everything. It gave me...

    Froo-Froo fake wood trim restoration

    I have a Briarwood and am trying to keep it looking as nice as possible. I don't know why, it's not special. I guess I just like any car I own to look as nice as it possibly can. Don't get me wrong, it still sees it's share of mud and rocks (mainly rocks here in Colorado). But I also like to...

    Gas charged verus hydraulic shocks?

    Old Man Emus are best how? For off-road? For smooth ride? For cornering?

    Gas charged verus hydraulic shocks?

    I found a little of what I am looking for. (I searched again.) I guess it seems like gas charged shocks are generally better suited to the road, and hydraulic shocks are generally better suited for off-road. I am running Monroe Reflexes righ now. I am happy with the handling but would like the...

    Gas charged verus hydraulic shocks?

    I searched and couldn't seem to find an answer. Here's my situation. I have a 92 4.0 XJ. I put the air helper springs on the rear to help out the slightly sagging leaf springs and to help out when I am carrying a heavy load. The rear end now sits a couple inches or so higher than the front...

    Low Engine Temps

    I'm sorry to bring up an out of date thread, but it is rare that I have some input on an issue. Up until yesterday, I had all the same issues you were having. And, in my case: Running cold = stuck open thermostat Replaced thermostat = running hot Replaced partially clogged radiator = A.O.K...

    Feeling "Horny"

    Thanks! What's "IIRC"? And, I'm probably just going to wire the new ones in, can you think of a problem with that?

    Feeling "Horny"

    Sorry, 4.0 1992

    Feeling "Horny"

    My lower toned horn stopped working recently. So now I have a real high beep, like my XJ got kicked in the nads or something. I think it was due to all the drift busting I was doing here in Colorado. I imagine I got some melted snow in one of them, which (according to what I read in the search)...

    Electric fan switch

    DOH! It was the defrost setting. I'm such a De-De-De. Thanks for the help.
