My Jeep Grand Cherokee 2005

[Sachinjeep]

Hi,

I am looking for some advice.

I have a 4.7ltr Limited that i had bought from Automall 5 years back in great condition. Having driven it for 5 years and about 90,000 km, it has developed some issues such as

1. Ac has collapsed and I need to change the evaporator and expansion valve.

2. Front control arms on the suspension need to be replaced.

I checked with Offroad zone who quoted upper control arms and Icon that have quoted lower control arms. I am wondering which one of the two is correct? And what should i do next!!!

When i tried explorijg the possibility of selling the vehicle, i was quoted a shocking price of about 25k! Its a lovely vehicle except for the above repairs that need to be made. So i have decided to go for quality repairs at a good garage.

Any suggestions or advice would be highly appreciated!

Thanks

Sachin

Show it to robbies garage in al quoz, they are very good with jeeps. Also Third opinion will decide lower or upper arm.

I have a 2004 JGC. I have replaced the control arms and shocks too, but I bought them online and just installed them here.

Here are the prices that worked out for me -

Iron Man Shocks + Springs = AED 3000 + AED 1200 (labor)

Front Adjustable COntrol Arms = $179.95 - roughly AED 600-800 including shipping

Adjustable Front Track Bar = $129.95 - roughly AED 500-600 including shipping

Installation Labor for Control Arm + TrackBar = AED 1000

AC Evaporator Change + Labor = AED 2650

Hope this helps.

Cheers, Josh

u serious JO::::::::;AC Evaporator Change + Labor = AED 2650

Where and which workshop charged you for AC compressor in place of evaporator. Did you mean 265 dhs???

No I meant Evaporator. This is under the front dash board, so they always have the reason saying "Oh its a lot of labor time... you have to take out the entire front dashboard carefully to get to the AC evaporator". The part by itself they charged me around AED1700-ish I believe. The rest was for labor.
