I bought this as I was planning to strip it for spare parts for my toy XJ. The XJ originally was sold as no title but when I came to get it the guy found the title. The jeep dont look as bad, just need some TLC then it will be a good beater on the cheap..
1995 Jeep Cherokee 4.0L, AW4, NP-231, D30/C8.25 no optionals except A/C
the bad..
-the fuel regulator on front of the fuel rail leaks like mad
-battery dead
-a good sized front right fender bender
-needs oil change in the engine and trans BAD
-radio unit FUBAR
-no exhaust pipe at back of the muffler
the good...
-engine runs beautifully even with fuel leak
-4x4 works
-tires still have lot of life left
-body's solid in most part (rotted floor panels but otherwise great condition for its age)
-trans seem to be working OK
-brakes works.
I will want to do for sure if I end up driving it
-replace the front right fender so i can have turn signals back in there
-change all oil/filter in the drivetrain (axles, engine, trans, t-case, possible power steer fluid, coolant flush.
-vaccum craps out of the interior
-steering wheel cover as the leather cover coming undo
-repair the flat front tires
-replace the leaky regulator
-install new tailpipe
-recharge and test the battery, replace if its bad
what I am asking... I want to see what you'all would check on the XJ before put any more money in it to make it more street worthy? I am almost uncertain as the XJs are so reliable even being heavily neglected
