99 $500
Lots of mud inside and out, small rust holes in rockers that turned out to be 75% of the rocker rusted after cleaning them up. Rusty roof, liftgate skim coated with filler that I noticed after cleaning up rust bubbles. Abs disconnected, filthy interior, one sway bar connector broken off axle and doors that someone attempted to open with a crow bar. Bald 31's. Unit fame filled with mud. And 3" rusty's coils and 3" blocks in rear. Cleaned up nicely but after 4 years decided to use for parts.

 

My previous owner left me a stock 98 cherokee with a rear spoiler thing (god knows if it does anything) and 180000 kms as well as what looks like all the serviec records for its entire life

 

With my '02 WJ GC, an evap/emissions code that needed to be fixed, a bad brake line, a stripped rear wheel lug, and a rust spot on the driver's side fender. Still haven't fixed that rust spot.

I also got a garage door opener, which was able to programmed to my garage doors, as well as a country CD that I've never listened to. I also got seat covers which turned out to not be fitting well to the seats, so I removed them.

In terms of modifications, brand new tires, two extra keys, an extra spare tire and wheel (full-sized and matching, might I add) and a newer battery.

With my old '94 ZJ GC, there's too many things to list... LOL.

 

A list of things to fix and the amount of peace and quiet I get out of that far outweighs the issues!

1996 Cherokee sport. Bought it for 100 a couple months ago and it's all fixed and my daily driver

 

No joke I found divorce files under the rear plastic, and I'm not about to take them two hours to him.

 

Ear rings. I've found 4-5 now. I use one to set the clock.

 

A **** ton of dirt lol!!!

 

I have one of them on mine. The answer is, not much. The idea is that it would direct a stream of air over the rear window to help keep it clean. My mom's old Explorer had one that was very effective. Could drive down the highway in the rain and it would keep the spray off the rear window without having to touch the wiper. Sadly the one for the XJ isn't nearly as effective. It keeps a tiny spot just below the brake light clean.

Maybe that's why they were there

 

I wonder what went on in the back seat of your jeep lol!

 

I got a coolant system that looked like it had never been serviced. New thermostat, radiator, water pump and yes, a new heater core. Finally not overheating and heat is rocking!

Also had to replace the headliner that was practically part of the seats. Got some nice camo up there now.

 

Yeah all ive found is that it actually diverts loose snow off the roof down to the window where its melts against the window and obscures the view so ill probaly be pulling it off atleast in the winter

 

The person before me was a tree trimmer. I found 6 axe heads, a dozen bent chain saw guides, a dozen screw drivers all bent and a giant oil stain where he carried his saws.

 

I brought a 1989 jeep cherokee larado and po left me with a phone charger

Bad

Leaking rocker cover gasket, head gasket, oil pan gasket and rear seal, front drive shaft in the trunk, cracked windshield, purple camouflage head liner, torn front seat. Vacum leaks. Rusted front spot lights,

Good

Rough country lift it's either 3 1/2 or 4 inch havnt measured it yet, 6x4 steel rear bumper, good tires, cut wheel arches, good body work with no rust, tinted windows, new stereo, interior in good condition except drivers seat.

It's my first Jeep it drive really well, I had it two weeks and the rear bearing in the alternator fell out. I got it from a dealership so the interior was cleaned so no fun stuff to find. It's a half built project iam going to finish it. The interior Is burgundy with burgundy camouflage head liner which is sagging it also had blue led interior lighting and it also has quarter light windows that seal.

 

PO gave me a paint pen, missing u joint caps, and ignored maintenance. 3 years later, its kicking ***. Just rolled 180K, bunch of maintenance, a few repairs, and I'm running strong. Hope to make it to 200k no problem now!
