The old XJ Cherokee that went away 15 years ago was a regular truck chassis. The current KL body Cherokee is based on the Dart, which makes the numbers really surprising; the Dart is rated at 1000#. Usually their modifications are more cosmetic- the MK body Compass and Patriot were just Calibers with different sheetmetal and were rated for 1000# (2000# if you added the trailer town engine oil cooler). The Caliber had split the difference and was rated at 1500# with no mention of an available cooler.
