Being new to Jeeps, and never having had a vehicle with a distributor cap, I'm not familiar with changing wires, cap, rotor, etc. on a tune up.
Anything I should stay away from on these parts? The XJ is a '96 Sport 4.0 L.
Just looking around online a bit, and I've seen distributor caps run from $6.xx to $46.99. A local parts store quoted me $36.40, not sure of the brand. The rest of the parts from the local shop were Champion plugs - $1.87/piece, $31.38 for wires, and either $12.00 or $14.00 for the rotor, depending on which one I need...not sure which one I do need...so, from the local shop, total is around $100. Looking online, not knowing the name/brand/quality of the parts, a Niehoff cap, distributor, Borg Warner wires, and Champion OE plugs comes to $30.99. Are those crap parts or what?http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductDetail.aspx?MfrCode=NIE&MfrPartNumber=FF53CS&PartType=193&PTSet=A
