Default New member from Arizona w/ 2000 XJ

Found this 2000 4x4 XJ with 174k miles for $4,700 earlier this week and snatched it up the following day.

Price was right on point with the KBB value and came with a lift and A/T's.

I haven't had a chance to take pictures of it myself except right outside my house and in the garage beside our patriot after I made room for it.




Pics below are from the dealer









We're originally from San Diego, but have been residing in AZ since Oct. of 2012. Our DD is a 2010 FWD Patriot (Limited).

We like to explore the back country, the Patriot has taken us all around the state, but quickly realized that we needed a 4x4 with high clearance.

I didn't notice any issues when I test drove it, they showed up here at the house.

1. Leaking oil
and 2. Cluck sound from front end on full lock.

I was waiting for the garage door to open, had it on full lock fully stopped waiting to make a right, when I accelerated I heard and felt clucking in the front.

I am a complete noob when it comes to cars, so I'll be taking it in to a local XJ shop to get it fixed.

Here are 2 pics from the oil leakage;
