Okay here's the deal...I can't beat the price: $700, and I'm more than 90% sure I am buying it (due to this fact), I have yet to personally see the rig, but based on the description its worth every penny, and I can trust the seller. I have a 1984 with a bombed carb, and I'm kind of over it.
As stated its an '87 with the I-6 and 5-speed manual (the Peugeot if i remember correctly), a little over 270K miles. Lincoln lockers front and rear, 33's, Dana 30 disco up front/Dana 44 in rear, and a 4.5" lift thats settled to about 4".
I know that most of the XJ's in this era are prone to the rear main seal oil leak, but beyond that I don't really know what to look for. Any suggestions (what to look for upon inspection of body, engine, tranny, etc, and also what to look for during the test drive). i've searched but have yet to find something that tells of any recurring or persistent problems for this year/generation.
