Rust and rot are things you want to avoid! You can replace most everything else, but a rotted structure is a mess and a money pit!

I love the WJ Grand Cherokees. 99 was the first production year for that model. Not sayin anything bad but just be aware. A buddy of mine had a 99 and had really bad transmission issues with it. My 2003 was great, not one issue except for the window tracks & pillows are plastic crap.

Like stated above, look for rot, crawl underneath around the rear bumper, that's where salt, dirt, dust moisture like to hand out. Also open doors & hatch and check out the seams at the bottom.

Good luck
