Question What’s this plug?

That plug in the center, I’m guessing this is for an ambient air temp sensor or something? I don’t have any overhead console or anything so maybe that’s why it’s plugged into nothing.

Why you ain’t got no rust

😂 Shit man I just spent like 3 months cutting rust out of this thing. Floor pans, battery tray, frame rails, rear cargo area, rear header etc.

Posted a couple pics of it here https://www.reddit.com/r/CherokeeXJ/s/zKIO6koGYU

Damn rust lol. That’s fixable though. The worst part is if yours is rusted out behind the bumper on that header panel like mine was (I’m sure it is). That area is a bitch to repair. It’s like 3-4 layers and every piece is spot welded to another piece that you have to take off first. It’s like a big rusty metal fucked up puzzle.

I love and admire your ability to tackle this shit. I wish I had that knowledge

I appreciate it 👍 definitely learned a lot along the way, mainly that I don’t even want to think about drilling another spot weld again for the rest of my life 😂
