I have my 96 sport with only 103k miles on it! I have taken this thing everywhere and have had it since 30k miles! Its been to the moab meets, the random trail riding, and drives me to park city every day! This summer I have had a horrible heating issue. I replaced the water pump, the thermostat, new belts, had the thing flushed. pretty much everything besides vents in the hood. I tow 2 motorcycles everywhere I go and its starting to overheat all the time. I put in a 165 thermostat and still gets hot when towing. Do you guys (and girls) think Its worth getting rid of the 96 for a 2001 with 185K but no heat issue? I really am at a loss at the moment because I love my jeep. any thoughts?

 

Do you love it enough to get into headgasket/head/engine issues??
