Request to Refurbish 1993 Jeep Cherokee Model

    Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but mods please move it or inform me otherwise.

    I'm making a request for some kind soul to take it upon themselves to give this 1990's Jeep Cherokee some love.

    I believe it originated from one member here who was working on it back in 2014, but then he went dark and never finished. So someone else slapped this model together, which uses the axles, and item tree from the stock Gavril D5. This worked perfectly fine, and even allowed swapping axles and engines with the newer updated parts.

    However, as of the latest update these parts no longer function, and only the original 2014 Gavril D5 drive-train works. It would be nice to see this model come back to life, and maybe even be improved upon.

    This should be a relatively easy fix for someone more experienced with Beam.NG modeling, especially since the J-Beams are already in place and fairly decent. Also the addition of the Hopper in the most recent update allows almost ALL its parts to be used in the Cherokee, as both the Wrangler and Cherokee share basically identical engines, transfer cases, axles, transmissions, steering wheels, seats, dashboards, and gear ratios.

    I would be very grateful for anyone to make this vehicle work again, with the possibility of some improvements as well.

    I have a very detailed knowledge of the Cherokee and Wrangler, and can provide information on ANYTHING. Engine weight, displacement, drive-line lengths/ratios/parts, EVERYTHING.

    I also have detailed images from the factory service manual supplied to Jeep mechanics, as well as my own Cherokee that I can take real world measurements off of.

    Model is pretty nice, would you consider uploading all of those files in a zipped folder? It would make it a lot easier, and you wouldn't have to worry about missing files.

    Click the "Upload a file" button and select your zip. Then it will show on the bottom of your post.

    The Russian site you mean mostly steals assets from models sold to game developers, then half-*** them together to make models.

    A different individual had a go making one completely from scratch but lost all of his files. The second persons version was much more current, and accounted for the new updates.

    Here is the thread to prove it:
