When do Cherokee Sport transmissions typically die?
Lots of talk of XJ's going to 200k+ miles, but when do the tranny's generally go? For one's just driven on roads, that is.

with upkeep they will go 300k plus
best thing you can do to any transmission is a cooler
heat is a huge problem from them

assuming its a aw4.....you can get them on craigslist for cheap...around here they are 150-300 dollars for a used one
i never installed a trans before...but you might be able to find someone to bolt it up for a few hundred dollars cash and a case of beer
