Hey guys, not sure how long I will be staying here. I joined this forum to see if you guys could help educate me on these wonderful machines. I currently own this and was hoping I could pass it down to my sister in return buying an XJ.
I'd like to know certain things about this jeep most of all being the problem areas or what to look out for when buying one.
Thanks guys, John Pepper.

nice looking thats for sure. the 4.0L is a great engine. check oil pan gasket, head gaskets, oil pressure sending unit, transfer case and drive shaft stiffness, tire wear pattern if visible, and any unusual activities. good luck

Yes on the driver side of the engine near the 4th head bolt back it will have a 4 number stamped into to it http://www.google.com/imgres?q=jeep+...t:429,r:0,s:50 this head casting is 97 to 99
