Planning a wheeling trip this weekend to a local park, most likely going to wheel harder than I have locally on power lines and stuff like that. Making some last-minute changes to the Jeep tonight talking with my buddy. He said I should disable the airbag while were wheeling. Do you guys do that? If so how do I disable it on my 99 Cherokee? Is pulling the Air bag fuse good enough?

Yes, that should do it. I did however look at my FSM for the 99WJ and see that there are two 10A fuses to the air bag control module.

Disabling the airbag seems unnecessary... Just leave her at home.
Come on we were all thinking it.

Got some drip rail rub, working on breaking camp now, think I got an upper control arm bushing bad or something. front axle makes noise whenever I'm climbing hills.

Look at the passenger upper control arm mount on the axle. Those wallow out. The retainer clip for the coil often bends upward as well.
