Hey all,
Since this is my first post and all, allow me to intoduce myself. My name is Parker. I am originaly from Arkansas, but I joined the Air Force a while back and got stationed at Pope AFB in NC.
I am somewhat of a newb when it comes to XJ's. My wife has a KJ, and I used to have a 4wd Ford Ranger, so I have basic 4wd and 4wd suspension knowledge. I am sure I will have more detailed questions in the future however. I am looking for an XJ for me. We bought the KJ last spring, and the Jeep bug has bitten me, I want one of my own. After doing some research, I have decided on an XJ. I have found a couple on autotrader, and went up to look at one of them yesterday. This one: http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=207808100&dealer_id=1374198&car_year=2001&search_type=both&num_records=25&keywordsfyc=&make=JEEP&transmission=&model=CHER&distance=75&make2=&address=27332&default_sort=mileageASC&advanced=y&certified=&max_mileage=&max_price=&sort_type=mileageASC&min_price=&body_code=0&end_year=2001&keywordsrep=&color=&start_year=2000&drive=&engine=&fuel=&doors=&style_flag=1&cardist=36
It is in very good condition, with on 63000 miles. It didn't start too well, but it could have been sitting in this guys lot for a while.
Then last night I found this one online as well.

The carfax report is what worries me, it says there wsa an accident reported back in 2003, but there is not a salvage title, so it should be good right?
I guess what I really started this post to ask, was, What should I look for in an XJ? Are there any hi-problem areas with the cherokees that you all have? Or basically, if it runs and 4wd works, then it's good? I just wanted to talk to some xj experts before takiing the plunge with one certain vehicle.
Thanks for reading my novel.
