Default Inner tie rod end

Help, I am replacing steering linkage parts on my 2001 Cherokee XJ and my Chilton manual shows the inner tie rod installed with the nut forward and the Mopar parts diagram shows the tie rod installed with the nut aft. I should have taken a picture I know, please forgive me.

Having power windows issues, while driving, passenger window controls go out, front pass, and the two rears, the driving switch however works. Wondering if anyone has encountered this... really starting to bug me. any help would be great.

My 1989 Jeep Cherokee starts fine when its cold , but once its warmed up it doesn't want to. I just did a full tune up on it, and put in a new crank shaft sensor. Any ideas??

Can you get it started at all once its warm? I don't think Renix era is susceptible to heat soak in the fuel delivery system like later years, but a number of people on here have had issues with their coils being bad.

It will start but it takes alot of effort, once I get it going it seems to run fine.

Alright.
Spotted a 5 speed drivetrain today at the pic a part. Going back tomorrow to get it. Might take the engine too its only got 132k on it (mine has over 318k)

Anyone got a link to an auto to manual swap? (I searched but I'm on the app) Its all there so I know I can get everything.

Off the top of my head...

Transfer case and crossmember
Trans
Clutch master cylinder and maybe the lines
Pedal assembly
The center console

If you could add to the list or offer any advice, I appreciate it.

Would one of these be okay to recover someone with? Would it be okay to jerk on the line with this? Or is there a possibility of the shackle tearing out?

Those are fine for recovery as long as they are good quality.

Nice, should I worry about the hitch pin breaking from jerking on a strap?

Don't do anything crazy, but no, the hitch pin should not break from a recovery. Think about the loads they are designed to be subjected to during towing.

Grats on ditching the slushbox and welcome to the ranks of gear grinders. These might help:
