I am looking to buy a cherokee soon and I found this one. What do you guys think. I was told to stay away from the Renix 4.0's and to look for a 1991 and up. Any input on what I should look for on the older or the newer ones would be appreciated. Is this a good deal or should I hold out. I have a 3000 budget to get into a new rig.

$2k is a lot for an 87, no matter how it is equipped or it's condition.....

Don't be in a hurry. Look at a handful of them before making a decision. They usually don't sell that quickly.

Why? There is ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with a 87-90 4.0

Depends on where youre from... I paid 2k for my stock 89.

OP, The only thing I would be worried about is the d35 rear with 33s
Other than that, the specs seem pretty good and are all solid upgrades. Seems like the PO didnt spare much expense and got the good stuff, which is nice.
I would definitely go look it over.
Keep in mind with no headliner or carpet (mine doesnt have carpet) its gonna sound like all the windows are open all the time..
