Thank you for the warm welcome. I have just been looking for sites that have people who know a lot about jeeps. I just recently got a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport with 141K and it has a few small issues that i am trying to work out, It sags in the back, has rust and possible steering issues. I am hoping that my fellow jeepers can help me make this into a beautiful DD:p

Everything can be cured with money, hard work, or a little of both. :welcome:

Welcome to the family :) You were talking about it sagging in the rear. That's mostly caused by the leaf springs they have lived their lifetime sorta speak. I see where you are from NY. You can get a set at a junkyard or buy a new set which ever your funds allow. But getting back to where you are from. That's one of the main issues you have with the rust I bet. With the chemicals and all used at winter time on the roads eats the bottom up. Also with that being said when you go to swap leaf springs be careful to spray the bolts a week ahead of time at least twice a day with PB Blaster to help loosen them up. If not they will probably not move.

Hey Carino, welcome to the forum. When your ready you can post the unwanted issues in the OEM Tech section. That usually gets the most views and replies. Hope we can help ya make it into your dream jeep.
