Coverage runs Cherokee, Wrangler and CJ. The Cherokee listings are the only ones that overlap in years, and the 1987-1993 Cherokee unit sits alongside the 1994-1996 and 1997-2000 4×4 units.

How to identify yours

The slave cylinder is the main split in this group. Four units are listed with an external slave cylinder: the 1997-2000 Cherokee 4×4, the 1994-1996 Cherokee 4×4, the 1997-2002 Wrangler and the 1994-1995 Wrangler. Three are listed with an internal slave cylinder: the 1987-1993 Cherokee, the 1992-1993 Wrangler 2WD and the 1992-1993 Wrangler 4×4. The 1984-1986 CJ listing does not state one.

The two 1992-1993 Wrangler units are otherwise close, so read the extra note: the 4×4 unit is described as Without Reverse Lock Out In The Case and carries ID 53006176, while the 2WD unit carries ID 53006169. The two Cherokee 4×4 units separate only on year range and Hollander number, 400-02700 for 1994-1996 and 400-02993 for 1997-2000, and neither carries an ID number in the data.

The 1984-1986 CJ listing is the one with several IDs recorded against it, so quote the number stamped on your case when you call.
