so looking through the classifieds in the paper today and found a 1993 Cherokee sport, 4.0L, 2 door, 4 wd and said make an offer. i called him up and he said that he just put on a brand new stablizer bar, ceramic brake pads, and new rotors and it has 220,000 miles with some rust.

jw if anyone knows anything to look out for and weather to get it or not and what price its worth

 

i would offer 1500 if it is not lifted on is all stock

 

ya its all stock, also the A/C needs to be recharged. he only drove it in winters here in WI so it also has some rust.

 

probably gonna have to ask someone who lives close to where you do. around where i live, that jeep may go for one price, but if you drive down to atlanta, you can get it for half that....it all depends on what cars go for where you live. sorry i couldnt help you, but i do recommend looking to see how rusted the floorboards are (seems to be a problem on most jeeps)

 

e2 i paid $2200 for mine but it has a total of 7" lift has a cooling system upgrade injector up grade exhaust upgrade with the same amount of miles on it but the average stock pre 96 xj were i live average price is $1500 depending on if the floors are not rusted through and the little rust is just exterior rust not interior

 

ok well thanks 4 the input, and besides the rust is there anything else to look out for when buying it

 

just the typical things. engine noise, tranny shifts ,watch the temp to make sure it doesn't over heat. test drive see how the brakes the steering and the rest of the suspension feels. those are the things i look at when i buy something

 

Before buying mine I looked at a lot of those 200k mile Cherokees. Yeah, Cherokees are known for good engines, but 200k miles wears out everything else.

If it is rough and looks beat on I would be in the $800 range.

If it looks used, but there are maint records, I would go no higher than $1500.

Then be prepared for $600-$1200 in misc repairs this year to get it to the point where you want it.

Check out any severe rust on the shock towers and coil spring perches. If those are rotted out, that Cherokee is beat.

 

ok well, thanks dude!
