I changed a power antenna on a 1993 Caprice Wagon. I took half of the bolts out whthat attach the inner fender on the right front wheel starting at the bottom left corner and working clockwise. I then loosened several others from the 12 oclock position. I was the able to pull the inner fender out enough to reach through the opening and remove the antenna cable & nut holding the antenna to the body.

I was able to remove the existing power antenna on my '92 Cherokee through the wheel well. You have to remove three of the nuts attaching the plastic to the fender as well as pull out two plastic plugs. Pull back the plastic and you will see the power antenna right there. Good luck, Woody
if it is like a '95.....remove the left front wheel.....remove the plastic fender well.....it is attached to a bracket right there above the well....I replaced my power antenna with a short rubber whip antenna.......
# Remove the center trim panel # Remove the radio mounting screws then pull the radio out of the instrument panel just far enough to access the electrical connectors and the antenna cable on the back of the unit # Disconnect the electrical connectors and the antenna lead from the backside of the radio and remove the radio
