Hey there everyone,
Nathan here, 28 years old. For no reason in particular I fell in love with Mopar about 6 years ago, and purchased my first SRT4, a 2005 Red.

3 weeks after owning the car, I was driving home from upstate NY and fell asleep.

I somehow walked away from that without a scratch, so I bought another SRT4, a 2005 Stone White.


The white one gets babied like no other, so I decided I needed another one as a daily driver. I picked this 2005 Black SRT4 up about a year ago.

Since then, my fiance has sold her Nissan Sentra and drives the black SRT4, so this left me needing another daily. I figured two neons was enough, I couldn't justify 3 lol. I've had my eye on the xj for a while, and after some looking I found this one in VA.

She has 117k miles on her, a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2dr. She was a 1 owner car prior to me buying her. I am still learning a lot about xjs. I love car / truck forums, and they have basically taught me everything I know in terms of working on my own vehicles. I'm looking forward to getting to know you all in the coming months
I'm sure I will have many questions.




So far I've replaced both wheel joints up front, as they were rusted to hell. Other than that she passed MD state inspection without a hitch! Are there any other things you guys / gals recommend I take a look at, considering she's a used Jeep and I don't have any service records?
