H: ok what year
M:99
H: what model
M: Cherokee
H: grand or regular
M:........regular (I didn't say anything since she was a girl)
So she rings up the cap and then starts to look up the rotor:
H: front or rear?
M: ...what
H: front or rear?
M: ...its for the engine....
H: o ****
Lol!
Not a fan of the grand or regular question..if it was a grand I would say so.

Most people don't say grand though. Look at it from their eyes. You would do the same.

Replaced the front horizontal motor on the drivers seat (gear breakage). Got a powered seatbase for cheap, and stripped the motors out of it. Easy swap by just knocking a couple of pins out to remove the motor.

Around here its like 90% grand cherokees. Sometimes you have to look 50,100 miles out. Any cherokee sport etc is usually a high school kids car, and they aren't selling.

Noticed yesterday I had a little wobbling between 55mph n 65mph, then sometimes is disappeared. So I had tires rotated(been needing to move rear to front) and balanced. Have not hit highway yet, so hoping that rotation/balancing helped. Will keep posted.

Got my rear lift installed, 3 inch leafs, shocks, and u bolts . Only hard thing was that my trailer hitch got in the way of pulling the bolt out of the shackle eye, so we just cut it off and replaced them from the other side. Ran out of time today so the front half will go on wednesday morning. Looks really rickety driving around town with it lifted like that but itll do till the front is on. It'll be rolling on 235's till after summer cause i'll buy a set of rims and treadwrights and get it lookin sweet. i'll post up some pics later.
