Hey everyone, just got a 96 Cherokee Country 2wd, all power. It has 157k miles on it and I was wondering what things would I have to look out for at this mileage/for this car? I'm new to a Cherokee, had a Ranger for 2 years and gave it up and bought this. Just wondering what were some basic things that I should look out for and all, any opinions would help thanks..

So basically nothing too major? I know the rear diff was replaced at 90k but thats it. Fluids and stuff like that, alternator, battery starter isn't anything big..

And yeah the FORD was nice but it eventually died.. like always.

Definitely when I get the right card for my camera..

Also I had a question the guy that sold it to me said an exhaust hanger broke off and when I looked at it, I realized the vibrations were coming from the Cat. Is there any problems with cats making loud vibration sounding noises?
