Year: '90
Model: Cherokee
Engine: 4.0 Renix
put in a 100amp alt and new battery, but first had to get a rounded off nut under the power steering pump so I could get the belt off, then I broke the ps pulley and had to go rent/buy a power steering pulley puller that was broken and tried to make it work and stripped the thread out of the power steering pump trying to get the new pulley on. Got it almost on then made three trips to HD to get bolts that were lost when I took it apart two weeks ago, ( i know i know be more organized taking things apart) finally got everything back in and fired it up. It runs but sounds like a thousand screaming banshees so I got to get the pulley further on, maybe 1/8" or so. That took 6 hours. It's margarita and barret jackson auction time..... The name of my '90 renix is Audrey III after Little Shop of Horrors.

Totally excited. Getting a set of 32x10.5x15" desert dog tires with 7/16" of tread FOR FREE!!!

Engine: 4.0L upgraded charging system & blue top, flowmaster 44, hi flow cat and two core rad.
I wired a 12 volt plug to the battery, changed air filter, cleaned throttle body, adjusted throttle cable, fixed the speedometer, fixed front bumper lights (I had left the positive lead off, oops), and washed and waxed it today.
