Ok I finally saved up around $2500. I need a replacement XJ as my 96 has serious rust going on the floor boards, rockers, and roof corners. Not only that it needs a new t-case, gas tank sending unit(leaks around tubings and electrical connector), alternator, and track bar.
I'm thinking of just using my 96 for plowing and wood hauling only. Don't really have the heart to sell it to someone else being the issues it has.
I'm hoping to find a running 97-01 with minimal rust.
Do the 97-01 rust in the same area's as bad as the 84-96 do?
Anything I should watch for other than the late 99-01 0331 head issue or the A/C issues on the newer body style?
I know $2500 is not much money for an XJ, but I know they are out there.
