Me and the missus are devout XJ lovers.

Me with my lifted 94 Sport and her with her lifted 91 Laredo.

Well that WAS until recently, after a bad connecting rod issue and replacement of the entire 91, and the 6mo of work that followed: we no longer have TWO XJ's.

Her 91 Laredo has been replaced.
With a 99 WJ

Found this little beauty on craigslist for $2000.
Needed a radiator.



The rundown:
1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited
4.7L V8 with 188,000 mi
FULLY loaded
Leather interior
Heated power seats
AM/FM/Cass/10 CD Changer (Infinity Gold System w/ amp)
Factory sunroof
and tons of other "stuff"

So far what has been done:
NEW radiator
NEW fan clutch
Oil change w/filter
NEW Oil pressure sensor
NEW hood lifts
NEW glass hatch lifts
(2) NEW taillight housings w/ sockets
NEW front rotors and pads
NEW Skyjacker Hydro7000 rear shocks
(2) NEW rear tires (fronts coming this week)
NEW pass. side headlight assembly

TO DO:
ADDCO 1" rear swaybar
Front shocks
Front CV axle boot (d.s.)

Not a bad deal. Rides sweet. Has enough power for HER.

And to top it all off. We put her 91 Laredo out front for sale and 1 week later, sold it for $1200!!! Thusly, making the new one cost $800

Here's the last pic taken of her old 91 (sitting next to its replacement, of course)



HMMMmmmm... maybe the GC has the WRONG name on that front plate.

 

Looks nice man.

But the 4.7 isn't like the 4.0, they don't run forever haha. I am feeling the plate though.
