1987 Jeep Cherokee XJ 4.0L automatic-transmission 4WD: 4-doors ~ 330K odometer mileage; owned since ~ year 1997; driven less than 100-miles per-year since ~ 10 years ago; starts, runs drives (although some concern for rust-coated brake-line from master-cylinder along down-path toward-rear brakes and PS-rear brake bleed-screw broke-off (either need to extract-replace bleed-screw or replace slave-cylinder);
good:
less than 1,500 miles on Goodyear Wrangler 235-75x15 tires (~ 7 years old) mounted on Jeep OE 1987 Cherokee XJ yellow-color mag-wheels; has Crane Cams Fireball HI-6S analog multi-spark ignition with Jacobs Ultra-Torquer ignition-coil (I installed ~ 20 years ago, and, very nice causes engine to run smooth); has Uniden Bearcat PC-78-XL CB-radio with antenna-mount installed through roof over rear-cargo area; has larger Dana rear-axle; has Hella 450 fog-lights (~ 20 years old); 4-gauge battery-cable from alternator to battery (with 150-amp block-fuse); larger Group-34 battery (wet-cell) is new (~ June this-year 2024);
not so good:
this Cherokee needs: likely needs new gas-tank; and, PS-front side-rear-mirror clip broken (tied in-place with parachute-cord); front-grill needs to be replaced; power-windows motors need to be lubricated or replaced; underside-rust work DIY done ~ 15 years ago but needs to be re-done again;
engine exhaust manifold may have slight crack (but doesn't cause problem with idle or driving); DS-front black-leather OE leather worn-tattered;
haven't used A/C for past ~ 20 years; body-paint not so good (color black); after-market Walker-brand high-flow-turbo cat-back exhaust maybe has another 1-year-life remaining;
registered in New York State:
located in Staten Island (parked in driveway); asking $500 OBO; contact me via [email protected];
sadly selling due to I am too old to continue work on cars as a hobby and to reduce auto-insurance monthly-expense; If you like 1987-1990 Renix Jeep Cherokees, you may be interested to continue this project (or use for parts).
