Lol, sorta. Just needed someone to reassure my friend that I know what I'm talking about, and that with some minor adjustments the '93 radiator will work just fine, I am right aren't I?
I tell you you cut a bunch of wires at once and blow a little dinky 15amp fuse and suddenly you don't know anything about cars, even after proving time and time again that I know a lot (about Cherokees at least)

Adjustments? I was under the impression that you just replaced the radiator, hoses, and tank.

Something else you may want to consider:
Get yourself a bottle of ATP AT-205 Re-Seal and throw a little bit in there.
My engine and transmission were leaking like a sieve, and one bottle of that stuff stopped it completely.
I was a non believer until I tried it, but I gotta tell ya, it works.

exactly. I bought a jeep, the owner said that it overheated because the radiator was cracked, so he poured in three bottles of Stop-Leak hoping to "fix" the radiator. It ended up clogging all the coolant ports on the head and caused it to blow the head gasket.
I understand three bottles may be a bit excessive but even a single bottle can clog something in addition to stopping a leak.
FIX the leak the proper way!

I don't care for it myself, but most auto mfgs. for many years used a sealer in all cooling systems when filled before they left the line, and still may today IDK for sure. This I know for a fact that GM did so as a cousin of mine was a UAW VP for them and told me.

Hey not trying to hijack anything but I am brand new to this and have some questions. I have a 93 cherokee sport that I just bought. I am thinking about swapping out the front axels that have ujoints for cv axels. I just want it to be a functional driver for the winter. I still plan on having fun with it but not tossing thousands into this one. Any suggestions would be great.

Tryin to pull the evaporator out. This little brass/copper tube is keeping it from coming out. Anybody know how to remove it? There was a sensor attached to it but I accidentally broke it off.

Also, it seems that new evaporators don't have the hole for the thermistor sensor so what am I suppose to do if I were to get a new one.
