94 zj ?
May be trading for a 94 zj v-8 4x4 with 152k miles on it. From the pictures I've seen it looks to be in good shape. So ...when I check this thing out , what should I look at thats know to be common problems?
Thanks for any help

Ok, I would still check the trans and transfer case but it should be a lot better. Also, look for any custom fixes.

Definitely check the TC by doing very tight figure 8's. If you hear the wheels hopping it means your Viscous Coupler is out in the TC, very common if someone hasn't swapped the TC yet.
Check the CV joints in the front axle, it's easier to find out now if you need to replace them before they blow up at the least opportune moment.
