Default Renix durability

I know this has probably been covered but i'm using the app and search function isn't working. A guy offered me to trade Jeeps and he has a 1990 cherokee that has the 4.0 Renix with 188 thousands miles. What are the pros/cons between the Renix 4.0s and the H.O. 4.0s?

None. The pre-'89 Renix had an issue with the C101 connector on the firewall and the late '99 to '01 HOs had an issue with cracked heads. Other than that, they are all equally reliable.

Don't be afraid of the Renix at all. Plenty of support here and 188,000 miles is nothing on one of them.
