    Gas Tank Skid Plate For Sale

    I purchased a gas tank skid plate from cherokee-nation.com who is no longer in business, but if I remember right, he was a forum member here. Actually if you go to this thread: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=48718 and look at the picture of "rockwerks" post, it's the same skid...

    Wanted: OEM roof rack crossbars from a 99-01

    Hi all, I am looking to buy or trade for some 99-01 factory OEM roof rack crossbars. My new kayak mounts don't work with my current factory crossbars. (I have a 97 XJ) If someone has a 99-01, I'll trade you roof rack crossbars and throw in some cash or if you've got some laying around and you...

    Will 99 roof rack crossbars fit 97 roof rails?

    I recently purchased a couple kayaks and Yakima Aero Hull Raiser mounts. The Yakima mounts fit great on our Ford Escape, but when mounted on my 97 XJ factory rack crossbars, the crossbars wobble back and forth like crazy. I wanted to see if someone here can confirm that the 99 and up factory...

    Where to wheel on Tue. Nov. 20th

    I thought you guys might have some good recommendations for me. I've got a basically stock XJ (other than skid plates and "slightly" larger BFGs) and my buddy has a pretty stock Warangler. I'm looking for somewhere to wheel somewhat close to Fresno. I've done Bald Mountain, been to Hollister...

    No Check Engine Light = No Pass Smog!

    1998 Cherokee... the check engine light is supposed to come on when you put the key in the ignition and goes off after you start it. It doesn't come on at any time... and therefore automatically cannot pass California smog. The Jeep runs great. Any ideas?

    Stuck starter problem... iginition switch problem??

    1994 Cherokee... Go to start it and it starts just fine, but if you let go of the key, the starter stays engaged and obviously makes a screeching sound. The only way to drive the vehicle is to hold the key to the run or on position (right before it goes to start) the whole time you're driving...

    Anyone know someone looking for a lifted Cherokee?

    I am not a NAXJA member so I'm not listing this in the for sale forum, but I own a Cherokee and visit this site quite often. The car lot I work at (in Fresno, CA) currently has TWO one owner Cherokees right now with clean Carfax reports and both just over 110k miles. We have a 98 Limited with...

    98 XJ Turns Over but Won't Start

    This thing is driving me nuts. Worked fine until the battery was disconnected and for terminal cleaning. Now it turns over but won't start. Also, the gauges normally all kinda come on when the key is in. Now, the voltage gauge and the fuel gauge do not work. The only gauge that moves is the...

    98 XJ Won't Start Electrical Problem?

    I took the battery cables off to clean the corrosion from them and the battery terminals. I put the cables back on the terminals. When I go start the Jeep I have full power to all accessories like the radio, power seats, etc. however, the engine will not turn over. I don't believe I shorted...

    Problems with new Cherokee

    Just purchased a 1998 Cherokee 4.0 4x4 at the used car dealership I work at. None of the gauges work: Battery/Alternator, Fuel, Temp, RPM, Speedo, Oil Pressure and the check engine light does not come on when you turn the key on like it's designed to (to show you it's working). The other lights...

    AC Problem?

    I drove the Jeep nearly 8 hours straight the other day with the AC on almost the whole time. AC works great and is cold. Near the end of the trip I went around a sharp freeway on-ramp and water splashed on my foot. I also had quite a pool of water coming out the bottom front of my passenger...

    I have to run on 89+ octane! How come??

    If I run 87 octane gas, I get pinging with the AC on or going up a hill. Anything that loads the engine makes it ping on 87. 89 or 91 it runs fine, regardless of the brand of gas. We're talking about the 4.0 6 cylinder on a 97 Cherokee with 160k miles on it. I've been told the timing could be...

    Won't stay in 4 low.

    I have a friend that is out of state looking to buy a 99 Cherokee with 69k miles on it. It goes into 4 hi just fine but he says it wont stay in 4 low. Is this driver error or can something be mechanically wrong and if so, how expensive is it to fix?

    Oil Pressure Issues

    Ok, I made the mistake of taking my 97 Cherokee 4.0 into a quick oil change place. They busted my oil pressure sending unit when they were putting on or taking off the oil filter. So now my "Check Gauges" light comes on and it shows no oil pressure. When you put the key on the guage does move...

    Bypass factory amp?

    I am in the middle of installing a new Pioneer deck in my 97 with the factory Infinity amp setup. Do I have to somehow bypass the factory amplifier? I believe if I hook it up like I almost did then the factory amp is going to get way too many watts sent to it. Does this make sense?

    I have a 1997 with the Infinity CD and tape deck plus Infinity amplifier. My CD player works VERY eratically. On a rare occation, it will not eject the CD or play it. It does this to all burned CDs and some regular CDs. I've finally decided to just replace it. 2 questions: 1. Since it...
