Default Heading to pull-a-part...new xj owner!

Well i was searching around online and found a 97+ xj at a scrap yard in my city (Edmonton, Alberta) and am going to head there in the next few days. Because I am a relatively new Cherokee owner (since September, 2000 xj classic) i am wondering what any of you would recommend trying to pick up while i was there. The only things i know i need are a front bumper lens cover and anything i can grab from the rear windshield wiper components and motors and such. Can you recommend anything i might need. In the future?

If you plan to wheel get spare axle shafts, also grab that front drive shaft.

He has a 2000 already. doesnt need the intake.

Although maybe grab the engine if it doesnt have the 0331 head AND YOU DO.
Check to see if you have it first.

look for aftermarket parts on it or anything that looks new. Factory skid plates and tow points are also somthing to look for.
skids or tow points dont need to be factory.

If the price is right and the parts are not rusted or broken, get whatever you can afford. if you have the vehicle for a long time,sooner or later you will use it. new oem stuff costs. I got a 5 gal bucket of bronco parts years ago that sat in the garage for a long time . then finally ,started needing things and looked in the bucket first. Remember the longer the stuff sits in the junk yard, the better chance it rusts or no longer becomes available at a cheap price.
