I have a 1988 cherokee limited. It overheated today and blew antifreeze all over the parking area. I added some 50/50 after it had cooled down. I started it and as the temp gage creeped toward the red zone and I watched the overflow tank drain and then start to refill with a slooshing...

Dang XJNick...you're everywhere. Thanks for the reply on this one too. Now I just need to find 2 more.

XJNick. Thanks for your quick reply. It leaks from the cap, but the cap is new about 2 months ago and works fine on the 1988. Any ideas?

cherokee overflow tank leak I have a pair of wrangler RT/5 Goodyear p235/75R15's on the front of my 1989 laredo. Are these tires too large to be safely used on this vehicle? I'm looking to get 2 for the rear, but I'm worried that they may affect the handling. Any suggestions or ideas? Thanks...

My 1989 jeep laredo is leaking coolant at the overflow tank. I switched my overflow tank cap (working correctly) from my 1988 cherokee and the overflow tank still leaks. Can I assume the overflow tank is bad and needs to be replaced? The temperature gage is working and not showing overheating...

I have a 1988 cherokee limited and I was replacing the ignition switch (working under the dash with all those freakin wires hanging around) and now my power windows don't work. Is that a fuse somewhere? Or did I just bump the wrong wire loose? I searched the schematic for a fuse location and...

I have a 1988 cherokee limited. It is black with the gold trim. I am looking for 2 pieces of the black with gold lines side moulding...the drivers side door and the rear passeneger's door on the same side (don't know if the vehicle side really matters?). Does anyone know where I can purchase...

I ended up having the driver's side seat cushion reupholstered. It was expensive, but less than replacing both seats. So if any one else is looking for leather seats, you may want to look into reupholstering the ones you have currently. The inside looks like new!

I went to a fabric store and asked if they had anything I could use a headliner? The lady says "we carry headliner material". I buy a little over 2-1/2 yards and some adhesive and presto for under $20 for material and around $8 for the adhesive I have a beautiful new headliner. Thanks to the...

I have a 1988 cherokee limited. I just replaced all 4 shocks and when I go forward there is a distinctive thump, and then everything's fine. This same thump appears each time I change direction. Any ideas what's causing this thump? I had the thump before the shock replacement, and I was...

KellenNold, Thanks, I was worried it was something important to the operation of the vehicle. A remote unlock receiver...I can live without it. Thanks for the quick response.

I have a 1988 cherokee limited and it has a printed circuit board between the visors above the front windshield. I thought it was great place to put the garage remote, but it has wires to it. I'm still new to jeeps...anybody know what it is? Mine's broken and I want to replace it, but I can't...

Tug-n-pull, Thank you! Its always been the foam backing that's been the problem, and why not just get rid of it. At 188,000 miles I can live without the foam backing. Thanks again.

JPS4jeep, How does that work? You take the headliner completely out and spray it flat and then the next day put it back in? I did try with the headliner in the jeep, and it lasted for a while. And is 3M the best product? Jay79CJ7, I like the thumbtack attack, and it may be my last resort if...

Does anyone have an answer to a sagging headliner? I have a 1988 Cherokee limited, and I have tried a 3M spray adhesive, then a product made exclusively for headliners, and the liner still sags. Is there an inexpensive replacement liner out there? Or a product that real works for jeeps? I...

The good news is that the 4th injector was leaking ( a new one fixed the problem). The bad news is that used Jeep 4.0 fuel rails go for a pretty penny on EBAY. I watched a fuel rail and 2 used injectors sell for $112.00... sheesh!

Question about York compressors Annihlator95, What I found out as I searched the auto parts recycling yards around here is that the regular 1988 cherokee never had leather seats...it was only the limited edition. So I'm now looking at re-upholstering or going with a set of grand cherokee...

front axle question Are the 1987-1990 4.0 fuel injectors interchangeable with the 1991-1992 4.0 fuel injectors? The parts people show they're different, but I've heard its just a case of putting the earlier model "O" rings on them. Anybody else ever hear anything like that? Thanks in advance...

tire covers Sound Man, Thanks again. If I would actually look at the picture in the book, I would see the nice exploded view drawing and figure it out myself. Of course I found the jeep repair manual drawing after reading your answer and fixing the horn. Thanks again.

I need a Template I am looking for one (or two?) 1988 cherokee charcoal gray leather seats. I am in the baltimore washingtom area. The part I really need is the bottom seat section driver's side (the part that gets the most wear and cracks). Thanks.
