Do you have any carpet in there? Mines just (****ily) rhino lined Floorplan. Thinking I'll eventually put something besides floor mats in there tho since she's my daily. I don't mind cleaning after mudding. Once I properly protect it of course.

Nope no carpet. I took it all out when I replaced the floor pans.

Can you recommend anything for the interior floor pans? Idk if I want to rhino line it again, I assume that's what's on there. Gonna be fun scraping all the old **** off. Heard really good things about monstaliner but it's so damn expensive and idk about how good of a rust inhibitor it is. Also heard good things about hy tech insulation additive. Heard some ppl swear it keeps the floor 20 degrees cooler which would be awesome! Sorry btw for taking this thread a bit off topic.

Not really no. I don't know what would be good as far as insulation, but I do know POR-15 is a really good rust inhibitor, but it's very expensive. If I were to do it again I would do a lot of things differently. Oh well live and learn.

6 months later a bought a 03 wj with brand new goodyear adventures for 500 plus tax because the resale guy told the customer that the engine tick was a rod knock. I bought it put 6-7 thousand on it still runs strong. So it does work the other way, just not as often
i miss working at a dealership. Used to work at a ford dealership as a detailer and always got deals buying trade-ins for few hundred over what po got

Really had to try to not say anything about this one. Bought my 2000 clean black xj stock for 2k, sold for 2800. 142k on it. Bought my current lifted white xj for 1700. Clean with 132k on it.

Wow!

I believe that this 1986 Turbodiesel Cherokee really is gold, in every sense.

Damn! I wonder who got it now.

i don't care for the 4 doors. the back door is virtually useless because only Asian children can fit and as a result the front doors are tiny. I'm single, as well, and I frequently tote around a 75lb dog and my 8 year old daughter with no problems. on the marriage thing...my suitress knows what's up. that jeep was around long before her and ain't going anywhere.

I've had plenty of full sized adults in the back of mine including one dude who's about 6'4" and 300#.

Note: do not put huge guy in the middle with two other adults and go yahooing across the desert, the seat back may bend.

Note2: When loaded 5 deep and over 1000# on a budget boost ground clearance and suspension travel are greatly reduced.

i think i'd make sure i made everyone know it was a manual window vehicle.. a ton of people i know would love that over the added power crap. and that is the factory dash. just doesn't have all the bells and whistles...
