I am going to look at a 1995 Cherokee 4X4 105K that has a Ford 8.8 rear end and a Dana 30 front axle. It has ARB front and rear lockers. I am not familiar with this set up and would like to get advice about the reliability and practical aspects of this set up? Anything I should look for and inspect? Thanks for any advice. Sandyman

 

If the dude that put it together has all of his own teeth that's probably a big plus right there. Other than that Caveat emptor.

 

Always. Thanks

 

I'd look it over very carefully to make sure it's not a hack job.

 

OK will do. Why I'm asking for suggestions. Thanks.

 

Ask for receipts and documentation. Without those the upgrades are worth very little. Find out if he did the work or where it was done. Take it to a mechanic for a pre-purchase inspection, preferably a 4x4 shop. It is always worth a couple of bucks to get it on a lift and check it out. If you are not comfortable with the vehicle and the price...walk away. There are more fish in the sea. Good Luck!
