    Random Coolant Leak 2001 XJ

    Last year I went through the entire cooling system, due to cracked head on 01. Replaced head/gasket/bolts, etc. Also installed new radiator, hoses, thermostat, thermostat housing, water pump.

    Question on possible overtorque on head bolt

    Just a quick question on a clearwater head install that I did on my 2001 XJ last night. Went through the proper torque procedure, 22, 45 (x2), then 110 on all bolts except 11 (drivers side front), which was 100 with thread sealant. I went through and checked them all again at 110, but on the...

    Doing 0331 head swap, what else should I do while in there?

    Hey guys, I've got a 2001 cherokee sport with 72,000 miles on it. Coolant had a muddy look to it, and the reservoir was empty, so I assumed the head crack. However, the the top end and crank case oil showed no signs of coolant entry. So as a precaution, I decided to go ahead with the...

    Rubicon Express 3.5 leaf install question

    I've got a 2000 XJ that I'm installing the RE 3.5 kit on. Rear leafs, are so far as bad as described, as far as removal. Passengers side wasn't horrid, but the drivers side front bolt decided to bust the weld nut off so the bolt just spins. No prob, I'll just go in through the floorboard to...

    Orange pipe thread sealant on heater core pipe??

    Hi all, I recently replaced the water pump on my 2001 XJ and while I was at it replaced the temp sensor and the outlet pipe leading to the heater core.

    Wanting to do some maintenance on cooling system

    I picked up a 2001 Cherokee Sport a few months ago, and my wife and I were going to use it this spring as we storm chase and travel in the spring/summer. I am in the process of doing plugs/changing fluids, but have read that one of the best things that can be done is to update/overhaul the...

    I briefly considered that this could be because of the lockout switch on the drivers side, but I'm not positive. Here are the symptoms: Passenger side power window swith does NOT activate the window up/down. Drivers side window switch DOES activate the passenger side window up/down. The...

    Can I run a ground wire directly to the alternator case?

    Long story short, I recently picked up a 2001 cherokee xj, and was doing the big 3 upgrade, battery positive to alternator positive, battery negative to chassis and engine to chassis. I've seen a lot of guys, rather than add an additional ground to the engine block, they just grounded the...

    Need some help finding a few parts

    Hey, I needed a little help finding a couple parts. I had the interior out of my 2001 Cherokee Sport doing a little work, and managed to snap the tabs off of the A-Pillar trim piece (drivers side). I tried gluing them back on, and reusing the piece, but it's just not working. So I would...

    New (to me) 2001 Cherokee Sport

    Hi, I recently picked up a 2001 Cherokee Sport after a bunch of time searching. It's black and has 72,000 miles on it. It seems to run well for being 13 years old, but the suspension and steering does seem a bit "lose" if you will. I'm just wondering at 72,000 miles what parts of the...
