What is the special tool needed to remove lower transmission line of a 2000 Jeep Cherokee?

There's no single "special tool" universally required to remove the lower transmission line on a 2000 Jeep Cherokee. The process primarily involves wrenches (likely a combination of open-end and possibly line wrenches to avoid damaging the lines) to loosen the retaining clamps or fittings.

However, depending on the condition of the lines and the specific access, you *might* find the following helpful:

* Line wrenches: These are specifically designed to grip the transmission lines without marring them. This is highly recommended to prevent damage and leaks.

* Slip-joint pliers: These can be used carefully, but line wrenches are far better.

* Socket wrench set: Some connections might use a socket instead of a nut.

* Drain pan: To catch any remaining transmission fluid.

* Rags or shop towels: For cleanup.

The difficulty comes from accessibility; you may need extensions or swivel sockets to reach certain fasteners. The exact tools will depend on your Jeep's specific configuration and the condition of the lines themselves. Always consult a repair manual specific to your 2000 Jeep Cherokee to identify the exact fasteners and their sizes.
