Ok. The fact that it had to have the rocker replaced scares me a little, cuz I figure it would be from rust. Rust it bad. Also, 270,000 miles is getting up there, you will (most likely) get about 130,000 miles out of it at most, but some 4.0's run for much longer. The D35 rear axle is a weak axle, especially for 35's. Iv also heard that the 242 is known to have problems, but I could be wrong.
But for 1600, you are basically buying that lift kit and tires, and getting a jeep for free.

1600 bucks? I say got for it. But it looks like he threw a lot of parts at it trying to fix a no start problem.
