like the title says, i just bought a black 2001 cherokee 4.0 auto with 124,000 miles for $3,000. needs a front bumper and header panel and new shocks. also has whats sounds to be a bottom end knock or loose flexplate? and when i rev the motor the valvetrain gets REALLY noisy-raspy would be a good word. no check engine lights or driveabilty issues. the body is cherry besides the front end(really slow impact on front bumper) and the interior is super nice also. from what i can tell the head has been off but i havent dug into it yet to find the problems. so what am i looking for and where? this is my 3rd xj and ive had a renix mj but never had the 97+ body style/motor setup..i bought this thing to use as my work vehicle/weekend toy. any help is really apreciatted. i plan on doing a full write up with pics and all when i start wrenchin on it.
