That thing is sweet! Would make an awesome road trip machine if you slap some EFI on it and get it running reliably.

You have any center consoles for a 97+ with the 5 speed? That should fit both 2 and 4 doors so, I'll definitely be paying you a visit haha, either that or to the junkyard I'll go.

After about a month of searching, we finally settled on an XJ. It's a 98, 2 door, 4.0 5 speed with only 155k on the clock. It has a 6 long arm lift, bilsteins, 35s and is amazing! Scored it for $3,200. No rust, but the interior...well, there no interior haha, but that's minor for a trail pig...

There's a few decent automatics in North Carolina right now. Due to the lack of manuals we might have to settle for one. Check the listings on the North Carolina Facebook market and there's quite a few right now. Good luck!

We bought the one we own now for three grand with only 186k miles on it. Sure it needed work but nothing I couldn't fix. We aren't expecting something pristine because, as you stated, it would cost us a lot more than what we're looking to spend.

Well we actually already have a manual 97 xj, we're just looking to get one for my wife now. To be honest a two door would be awesome as we already have a four door, but either or would be nice.

Also, I'm willing to travel to Georgia/South Carolina/Tennessee/Florida/North Carolina to see the XJ. Naturally, I'd have to see sufficient pictures before I decide to do a 6+ hour drive. I live on the border of Georgia and South Carolina, so I would prefer places around there, but I'm more than...

Looking to expand my jeep family, nothing too expensive. Preferably no rust but some surface rust won't scare me away. Looking for a 1997-2000 XJ manual transmission with 4x4. Not looking for a big project, would prefer it to have not too many problems.
