Lightbulb Jeep XJ 1990 and up wanted !

So, this is my first post on the forums !
I've been looking around for a wrangler for a year now, and just can't seem to find one that fits my budget !!
So i stumbled upon this website and fell in love with the XJ!

Anyhow, do you guys know anyone that is wanting to sell their XJ ? Clean, no mods or simply just lifted by 3inches ?

I'm in Quebec, can drive to the states to pick it up with my dad.

Allright, so here is my posting ! :





ENGLISH BELOW !!





Bonjour,

Je suis à la recherche d'un Jeep Cherokee. Construit entre 1990 et 2001. Qui n'a pas au dessus de 220 000 kilomètres. Qui est en bon état coté carroserie (donc pas de rouille sous le véhicule).

De plus, si vous êtes le propriétaire original, si possible, un receuil des services effectués sur le véhicule.

Le XJ peut être équipé d'un lift, par contre je demande pas plus que 3 pouces.

Merci !

Emailez moi vos propositions SVP !



Hi,

I am currently looking for a 1990 to 2001 Jeep Cherokee (XJ). I would like the Jeep to have under 220 000 kilometers (about 100 000 miles) , and be rust free on the frame. Cosmetic rust is fine, only if it is not major rust.

If you are the original owner, and you have all the service history, that included would be amazing !

The XJ can be equiped with a lift, but dont bother contacting me if your lift is higher than 3 inches!

Thanks !

Please email me your propositions via email !

Do some research. Look at what others have done and plan to do.

Get around 25 posts then you can view the classifieds section. Or check craigslist.

I was wondering how much it costs you to do all your mods!

Also, being kindoff a newby here, I was wondering, what are the common problems people have on the cherokees ?


Thanks !

Common issues are leaks and heat issues.

Most can get a 3" lift for under 600$ US. Look into BDS.

Hope this helps.

Allright, craigslist is over priced... Dealers seem to think that selling 150 000 mile jeeps at 7000 is good...

I need to find a private seller to start off with, i don't mind the rust, thank god for bondo and my hands !


As for the leaking, seals and gaskets do the trick, no ? and for over heating... radiator and prestonne changing ?
