A sad day but my wife has finally convinced me to give up the old trusty XJ in favor of something she's willing to drive with the kiddos in it. Don't have space to keep the Jeep around d much longer but, can't stand to see the old girl go to someone who won't appreciate 'er...the Jeep, that is.
Anyway, everything you need to know is in my build thread from my signature below but this is a rock solid '00 XJ Classic that is setup as true wheeler with the professional parts and install that has also allowed it to be used as a DD going on 6+ years.
Not without a few quirks (happy to describe to ant would be buyer) and rust spots but has not been wheeled hard by any means and has it where it counts. Never once has this vehicle let me down or left me stranded. I think the parts and labor alone I have in are worth over $6000 but Im a realist and would be glad to see her go for $3000 cash to a good home.
Again, all the info, pics and such anyone should need below. Please PM if interested or I'll watch here as well.
2000 Jeep Cherokee Classic
145,xxx miles (mostly daily commute)
4-door, with the 4.0L
Has the rather rare Grand Cherokee transfer case that includes the Limited Slip Differential setup, the exact name is escapes me.
Once you get some sleep could you get pics of the bad rust spots underneath?
Sure thing, can get some shots for you today - currently -12 out but once we get a midday warm up I'm on it.
Can tell you offhand the "worst" of it is on the rear side rails (from salt spray) and near the leaf spring mounts in the rear which I had repaired / welded some time back to reinforce for a hitch mount.
And before I forget, here's a shot of the tire tread depth - these are the second set of Treadwright "Wardens" I've run and love them. I think I bought this set last Winter:
Well, told the wife I'd throw the Jeep on here for a week and, if I didn't have any bites, then turn to official "farm car" status. So, looks like this XJ will be put out to pasture on a steady diet of hauling firewood off the woodlot for now!
