Thanks for the help dude
And a quick note, many 2wd jeeps with a locked rear have done well with dirt, sand, rocks etc.

So it just now crossed my mind.... im doing an auto swap to replace my blown peugot. I have a 3" lift (have to replace the po's front worn out springs though) so im not very worried about the rear driveshaft but will the front driveshaft be able to compensate, because from what i understand the auto is longer

Hello. I have an 89 cherokee limited, and my dashlights and tail lights do not work. when i put a new fuse in, as soon as i pull out the headlight switch, the fuse blows. also, my dome lights are staying on, even after i turned the jeep off and pushed in the headlight switch.. another thing, when i replaced my ignition switch, the blue harness that plugs into the switch was melted a little bit. also when i start the jeep, my starter stays on and i need to open the hood and ground out the green wire on coming from the starter to turn it off. i have checked all the wiring around the taillights and under the dash and cannot find a short anywhere, and its DRIVING ME NUTS!!! any ideas??? maybe a bad headlight switch?? thank you!!

could that be the cause of all the other problems as well? im certainly no electrician, but im assuming that all these things are running on a circuit through the ignition switch and if there is a short right at the switch then that would be my problem?

Thanks a bunch in advance!
