^ This.
And once he gives you the title, pull the fuel pump relay. Say you don't have a clue but theres a shop that specializes in only Cherokee repair, not upgrades. They'll even tow it to the shop to diag it for free. Give us 2 days with the truck, and we'll plug the relay back in... and if it so happens to leave with a front axle, t-case, and trans, then it is what it is I guess.

And side note -
Awesome wheeling today, thanks to Miami Offroad Club for having Karnage out. And thanks to Aerosync for keeping me company as usual... even though my seat was randomly covered in stuff from time to time... wait, that sounded dirty....
wait....
it was.
Between the BBQ and all the shenanigans last night and the wheeling today, great trip!

Thanks to all who came out last night and hung out and thanks to all who showed up to ride with me today. After my incident Friday night, a good weekend with my friends was just what I needed!
