Any ideas if the K&N air filter cleaner will work on my cold air intake or should i just buy a new cone filter? The PO never provided me with any paperwork for the CAI. its not home brew tho. Seeing as it already passed smog I dont really mind it having no paperwork. I can always swap the stock airbox back in....

Heater Core Replacement 2000 Jeep Cherokee
Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way to remove the heater core from a 2000 Jeep Cherokee through the engine hood instead of removing the dashboard. I'm not concerned about the cosmetics--I just want to put a new heater core in without all the work and expense of removing the dashboard.
If we cut a hole in the firewall from outside the car, is the core accessible?

there's no other way - the core is quite large and packed in there

X2, plus if you did destroy your firewall to get it out that way, you would no longer have a way to mount your blower motor. I replaced my heater core about a year ago. It sucked taking apart my dashboard but i learned alot about my jeep. There is a great write up on here to help. Good luck.

Hey I can't get the lower track bar mounted to the axle. The bolts in there but the nuts not on it. I drive it around the yard like that and it did fine. Is there ANYWAY I can drive it like this to the hardware store to get a bolt then drive back?
