Cherokee Haynes Manual
 
I just recently bought a 2001 Cherokee Sport and decided to buy a Haynes
manual for it. The only manual the parts store had was from 1984-2000, but
I bought it anyway.

Should I take it back and look for a 2001 book, or is the 2000 model pretty
much the same as the 2001?


Thanks for the advice,
Sean

Take it back and get the "Factory Sevice Manual".
That'd be your best bet :-)

Re: Cherokee Haynes Manual
 
Personally, I think you shoudl take it back even if the 2001 and 2000 are
identical, which I think they are not. What you really need to do any
service on your Jeep is the factory service manual. It costs a bit more than
the Haynes costs, but the Haynes is not even suitable for wiping your ass.
The pages offer very little useful information, so you can't fix anything;
and the pages are too rough to use as toilet paper.

Take it back and get a FSM. It'll cost you more, but you will quickly see
the value.

I got the 2000 Haynes Manual for a '99 TJ and it's fine. All you need
is exploded pics of the inline 6 (same as yours) and the
axles/gears/transmission. The wiring diagrams/instructions aren't that
great, but a monkey could wire these vehicles anyway. I got the Haynes
book for $6 on Ebay too, saving about $95 on the Jeep shop manual.
Between that and Google searches, I can't see spending the $100 on the
manual, but more power to those who can and get more good out of it.

I get the factory manual for each car I buy.They pay for themselves over and
over.All the infomation is detailed in one place. They make replaceing things
like heater cores and case seals a lot easier.I just got the Jeep manual and
its worth it. When you are done with the manual you can put it on E-bay.

I agree. If you have an ebay account you can get service manual for less
than a Haynes.

I just got my first service manual a couple of days ago and there's no
comparison to Chilton's or Haynes. Everything you need to know is covered.
