Default Back in the(xj) game soon

Haven't been on in a long time... sold my cherokee in november '10, and now i realized i absolutley need another!

Been searching for a stock one, to build up..

But came across this and am thinking about it and thought that it would save a bit of cash buying one already done up. Hoping to see it this weekend. The miles are the only thing that concern me, some input would be great guys, thanks

yet again, the phrase "Real Jeeps are built not Bought" comes to mind, even if it was built by the PO, it wasent built by you. i understand if someone wants to buy an already built XJ if they dont have the time to do so. I really am glad that you want back into the XJ lifestyle, i don't wanna be a dick about it but if you buy a pre-built jeep i think the jeep would feel strange and unfamiliar if you didnt build her from the ground up... maybe some people are different... i dont know.. just my honest opinion =]

I agree. thats why i'm trying to find a stock one, but in my area people want tons of money ($5k-8k) for stock and sometime higher mileage(over 150k) ones it insane.

This XJ is super clean, saw it today. The lift, rear axle, gears have 60k on them. Tranny/tcase only 20k. cooling system is new, ujoints have 10k. etc etc. its built very well too, no shortcuts whatsoever. Compression is 180 across all 6 cylinders. interior is all covered and is almost new underneath.. would never guess it has 180k miles nearly
