90 XJ Heat shielding
Does anyone know what type of exhaust heat-shield was present on Cherokees
around 1990? Mine gets pretty warm on the passenger's floor near the tunnel. I assume the CAT & exhaust may not be shielded properly anymore. I was going to attempt to add some heat shield insulation from JC Whitney to see how much it might help, or am I better of adding a metal shield to the CAT, etc.? -- Dana Port Kent, NY 2002 Saturn LW300 93 Jeep YJ - I4 - 125k mi. 90 Jeep XJ Ltd. - I6 - 145k mi. --------------- 95 Grand Cherokee Ltd. 91 Grand Wagoneer Ltd. 82 Cherokee 4dr 76 Cherokee 2dr |

That's totally normal as far as I know. Our 88 gets really hot there
and if you remove the carpets in the Wranglers, they have a heat warning sign on the tunnel even. Mike 86/00 CJ7 Laredo, 33x9.5 BFG Muds, 'glass nose to tail in '00 88 Cherokee 235 BFG AT's |

Re: 90 XJ Heat shielding
I just took a look under my neighbor's Cherokee and there is no heat
shielding for the converter or the muffler. It might be worthwhile to put some in there. -- ..

Yeah, I soon learned that that is not the spot to put your bag of groceries

Re: 90 XJ Heat shielding
It came along with a bunch of other stuff at a storage auction "Everything
in this bin - 4 dollars" so I don't know for sure. A quick Google brought up this web site and it appears to be HVAC duct insulation. http://askdepot.com/online-162767.htm I cut a piece and subjected it to a torch flame and the foam backing caught fire. A second piece was undamaged when the flame was held several inches away. The backing is similar to 3M mounting tape as seems water proof when dunked in the laundry sink. The shield on my WJ iappears to be a quilted aluminum or tin that is secured with several screws. The shield startes shortly before the converter and extends just past the muffler which is much larger than the one in Ed's XJ I just posted some more pix of the WJ's heat shield into that same album. -- ..
