Default Highest 4.0 Millage?

Im just a fountain of questions today. This one is a little more fun. I want to see who has the highest millage on this site. Only rule is that it is an XJ with a 4.0. Include pic of odometer if you can. Just curious to see what I should expect out of mine. I've heard of 300K+ on well taken care of 4.0s. I know mine has and my 91 Laredo has 143,543.

You know it, buddy. You take care of that 4.0 HO motor and it will take care of you. I have flogged mine in snow I don't know how many times, bouncing it off the rev. limiter...and she just keeps going. Just keep an eye on the temp. gage and oil pressure gauge.

This was not a grand cherokee, but I saw a ZJ at a junk yard that had over 800,000.I believe it had the 4.0 It looks to be a little hard to believe, but that is what the odometer said. And I had no camera with me.

Edit-
