Default New here. First Jeep

Hey guys, So I just bought a 99 cherokee classic in purple (like in my display pic). It runs great, has nice cold a/c, and its in great condition. I'd say a 8/10.

-I love the Jeep, Plan on keeping it stock for a while because I bought it for my DD and I live on a dirt road.

It has the 4.0L Engine which I know is bulletproof.

-What are some common problems I should look out for?
-The steering column has p/s fluid leak, is this common? It's not too big, but I plan on getting it fixed (do it myself if it's not too hard)

Thanks in advanced for the warm welcome and I hope to be a good contribution to this Jeep community.

Welcome to the forums...

And yes, you picked a good vehicle for a dirt road. I have the same issue.
