I'm having to give serious thought to replacing my 91 Cherokee with a 95, just what type of mechanical differences will there be engine/performance/service wise?:dunno:
Can you be more specific? What exactly are you going from? 2.5 no option 4 banger to 4.0 with all ammenities? Are you going from manual to automatic? Both years are 4.0 H.O. so there's not much difference there.LadyCherokee said:Aren't there more electronics on the 95?
jk333 said:i think the airbag thing is true. Everything has been computerized on the Cherokee since 87. The trans, Engine most operating systems. Cherokees are good rigs. And the country is really nice, If I was going to buy another Cherokee I would buy the country model. Your basically looking at the same everything on each Jeep.
exactly, Renix, H.O., 97-01.Muad'Dib said:At least in the year range the O.P. specified anyway.
Major differences are 87-90, 91-96, and 97-01.

As for change...the steering wheel is just about all. also rear speakers are on the ceiling above the cargo hatch rather than on the rear hatch door...Which is a plus for me because I kept slamming tool and recreational equip. into my speakers on the 92. Other than that their the same old tank. You might even consider keeping the older Jeep for parts.
The tailgate speakers may be better in theory, but they don't radiate much when there's a lot of stuff in the back.LittleRedXJ said:Ugh, the speaker bar is one of the lesser ideas ChryCo had for the XJ... I see your point about your stuff in the trunk slamming into your rear speakers, but the sound bar is a terrible location for the speakers, its made of lightweight fiberglass (I think?) and it gives the speakers NOTHING to resonate against. The tailgate position would be much better, although I can't speak from experience as I've only ever owned the '96 with the speaker bar. Good thing I have an 8" sub to make up for the fact. Its also kind of a pain in the ass to take down and swap out speakers. Which I think I have to do, I think my wife blew one of the speakers. Could've been me, but for now I'm going to blame her!
