Additional Notes
- The Jeep Cherokee XJ power steering system holds 1.2 liters of fluid across all listed configurations spanning 1987-2000.
- The 1.2-liter figure represents a system-level capacity, meaning the total volume the power steering reservoir and associated lines hold when fully serviced.
- Both the 2.5-liter and 4.0-liter engine variants share an identical 1.2-liter power steering fluid capacity, indicating no engine-size-related variation in the steering system volume.
- The two-wheel-drive and AWD versions of each engine variant also carry the same 1.2-liter capacity, meaning drivetrain configuration does not affect the power steering system volume.
- All four configurations are rated under normal use conditions, which in fluid service contexts typically refers to standard on-road driving as opposed to severe-duty or off-road-intensive operation cycles.
