Hi i am looking to buy a used 1999 Grand Cherokee 4x4 Sport, it has 176000 miles.

It has a top rack lifted, 2 inches,
and according to the flyer

2.skyjacker super lift with rancho shocks
3.jks anti sway bar system
4.Quadratic steering box
5.Slip yoke eliminator
6.Throttle body spacer kit
7.Air raid Air filter kit
8.Super chip trail dash programer
9.All fluids changed to synthetic oil
10. new brakes and hoses

OH by the way this is my first post here and thread , my names DOC... im an alcoholic.......wait wrong intro:pinch:

nice to meet you guys.

PS

THe guy wants too much i think. im looking to talk him down, alll opinion welcome

Welcome to CF
Value varies on XJ's quite a bit.
Seems the last couple years, with the Jeep craze, values have risen. Prices vary from each zip code, so I'd suggest doing some homework with Craigslist- AutoTrader or whatever. I always like to negotiate price as well

what do you think the parts are worth? i found a 4.0 4x4 XJ found probably go for about 2000 just basic top condition. although this one has obviously had some care

Just so everyone is aware, the OP isn't talking about an XJ. A 99 Grand Cherokee is a different model completely. WJ.

oh sorry i thought XJ was some hip internet slang for Jeep Grand Cherokee

lol my bad.....
XJ is slang for broke

Honestly i would never buy a xj that has a lift on it,I would look hard for a virgin one that has taken care of it.A lot of the lifted ones was own by younger people that probably drove it hard and didn't take care of it,So you end up fixing all the problems that show their ugly head after you had it a while.

I like the name doc and the alcoholic bit lol

It was built by a garage thats been open in my town for 20 years now i dont know the history before that yet

thank you (Bow)

im still not getting it?

"XL cheroke" sounds like some kind of a Ford.



I think you mean XJ Cherokee.

The 99 Grands were called "WJ's" and the last series of the Grand Cherokees good for off road use and still have a lot of comfort, I have both and would get rid of either one.

Jeep uses two letter designations for the various platforms. Similar to how GM uses a one letter designation.

Camaro/Firebirds are F bodies for example.

XJ is the 84-01 Cherokees
ZJ is the 92-98 Grand Cherokees
WJ is the 99-04 Grand Cherokees
YJ is the 86–95 Wranglers
TJ is the 97–06 Wranglers

And so on.
