The "99" through "04" GC has a known fault with the heater blend air doors, especially the automatic temperature control heaters, you may be experiencing this problem, symptoms are no heat on passenger side or drivers side or maybe heat on one and not the other, this is an expensive fix if it is the problem as the dash has to be pulled, but not all is lost, there is a guy on ebay who sells a fix kit you can install from under the dash it works and fixes problem for a fraction of the dealer cost, hope this helps, WKjeeps.com has an article about this problem.

grand Cherokee front dif problems

IU have a 98 Grand Cherokee that keeps blowing front diffs. Two in the last two weeks! I also have a 94 Cherokee scout that Im about to junk. Would it be poss ible to install the transfer case and front diff from the scout to the
grand. I really hate the full time 4 wheel drive on the Grand to start with! I was in a pinch and got the Grand Cherokee for a good price paid $2000 and now have an additional $3000 into it. I was just going to put another junk yard dif in it and sell it but I dont want to screw someone else.

I also have a '98 GCLtd and I removed the front drive completely. As I only use it as a road car I didn't see the need for 4x4. Take out both front drive axles but retain the stub axles to the wheels. Remove the prop shaft from between the diff and transfer case. You then have a perfectly good road car, with perhaps a little understeer, with less front end noise and no prancing about when starting off.

Thanks for that might actually do that. DOes your transher box not work now? my transfer box is making some noise? if doing that wil help might do that. Is it just as easy to make it into front wheel drive, as its better in snow.
cheers

HI
I am having the same problem.If you go left or right does it stop? if you turn left and it stops it means the problem is on that side and it could be a bearing. if it sfront its cheaper than the rear one. Also might be the diff. have you noticed any different with performance.
hope this helps.

I have exactly the same problem with my 2004 Jeep GC. I bought it 2 years ago & noticed the same thing as soon as I drove off the Patrick Pontiac lot. I took it back to them & naturally, they couldn't find anything. Since then I had Elmer's, my regular mechanic, diagnose the steering column replacement and tell me to take it back to Patrick because it's a $1000 job. I did this, & again, they did not find this problem. I don't regret buying my Jeep; I regret who I bought it from. I'm going to Vision for 3rd opinion and then most likely will have my trustworthy guys at Elmer's fix it. Good Luck

this kind of vibration at a specific speed usually indicates that you need to get your tires balanced. i recommend a computerized road-force balance if your shop has one. good luck!

Does anyone know if you can pop the glass assembly (mirror and frame) out of the mirror shell? If so, how do you do it? I'm trying not to have a painting event.
