I found a 1996 Grand Cherokee limited 5.2
It's black with 133,000miles
Here's the best part...... He only wants 1800!!!

I'm going to look at it tomorrow with my mechanic.
Here's the ad http://easternshore.craigslist.org/cto/2507079133.html
In the ad he claims it has a 5.9 but I'm pretty sure that was only available in the 98... Correct me if I'm wrong

Looks good. Yes, the 5.9 was a '98 only option. The 5.7 hemi didn't come till '05 with the wk and the 6.1 hemi in the srt8 wk. Try and get him to go lower on the price, but don't make it a deal breaker.

Are you sure about going lower? I mean 1800 is an awesome price.

Just remember that most common aliment I see on CL and V8 ZJ's is tranny problems that seem to happen around 140k to 160k miles.
