I bought my 1998 Cherokee Sport 4x4 for $1200 (asking $1800). She has 358,000km but I realized that was low after looking at the High Mileage threads here.. so I own my XJ thanks to you all! lol.
Needed a full tune-up, battery/cables, rear breaks and a few odds&ends, but my To-Do List is getting bigger the more I visit this site (like tires, locker, trimming, more lift). She's worse on gas than I thought, but better than my Suburban lol.
(Bumper has been trimmed on the side and the bottom/valance since this photo)

I paid 2500 for my 97 xj with 88000 miles no rust at all with an 8" superlift rock ready lift with 4.56 gears front and back and locker in rear. It needs an alignment exhaust front brakes and a couple odds and ends. It has a warn rear bumper with tire carrier and a arb front bull bumper with a warn winch. So far besides the 2500 I have $150 in it
I paid 1000 for a 1990 xj with the 4.0 that has 175,xxx on it and a 6 inch lift, with 35s, a steel bumber in the back and to kc lights in the front. But it had the worst paint job ever and it looked like some one tryed to use wood filler as bondo also who ever painted it didn't tape off anything there was overspray on all of the windows and when I lifted up the windshield wipers the stock paint was underneath! Lol
