Hi folks!
just picked up a 98 4.0 5 speed with 254k on it.. original engine.. at $400 who cares how many miles lol.. anyways. anyone else got that kinda millage on their jeep? and engine replacements don't count lol....

 

Lots of people have 250k mi+ on their Jeep with the original engine (and often original trans too), my '95 "only" has 220k mi on it. 300k+ mi is relatively common. If you don't already know, the 4.0L I6 has a reputation of running until the vehicle around it crumbles into a pile of rust.

Here is an XJ Cherokee with over 600k mi on it:

the cluster I swapped into my jeep showed 226k when I got it. the one it came out of was an 01 sport, pretty nice actually. mine actually has 148k on it at this point.

 

That's crazy! Hope mine just lasts til 300k

 

The speedometer is showing max 15 MPH so my odo counts slow and it's at 319,296, so it's probably 350,000+

 

My '94 XJ is about 300 miles from 250,000. Original engine and transmission. Biggest repair has been a blown head gasket. Luckily it blew between 2 cylinders so no oil or coolant was involved.

 

one thing I will be doing is changing all the fluids on mine, I run synthetic oil and wix filters in everything I got.. my last daily was a toyota and i sold it to my boss at 255k hes got 260+ on it now.. my bmw is at 188k so high millage vehicles aren't anything new to me lol....

 

How about 612k http://www.allpar.com/old/high-miles/richey.php

 

Makes me feel good putting a few dollars into my 161000 XJ

I had a 93 manual Camry w/ 235000 miles when I sold it. Wish I had it, that thing still ripped in 2nd gear!

 

love the 612k link...... I can see it no doubt, I had that very year and configuration in an '88 mj...... I put 190k + before selling it (cheap) to my now worthless brother who was supposed to give me first dibs if he sold it.... but I digress, never again)....

anyhow....... the only thing I ever did was exhaust mani swap... (cracked) and the obvious batterys, tires, rotors, brakes one would see with 190k... and it ran strong as new

did I mention my worthless bro?? I see red just thinking about it......... best truck I ever owned.......... period

 

Now that would be cool if my $300 jeep made it that long! ok first step.. 300k lol.. looks like the crank sensor is to blame for the no spark condition.. hopefully she'll live again this sunday...

 

That 600k Jeep makes my 198000 mile Jeep practically new!

 

93 Cherokee sport 2 door 5 speed, 253k and climbing on original engine and tranny.

 

Took this about 3:00 this afternoon sitting on the shoulder of Rt 340. Pulled off the road at 249,999.8 and crept down the side until it rolled over

 

320k+ runs great
