Former TJ owner. Sold it about 6 years ago. It was a 4cyl and no AC and i grew to hate that since I lived in SoCal then and sometimes you just need AC and the 4cyl was a dog trying to get up to Big Bear. I plan on getting a TJ Unlimited later but for now I need a $5000 cash car and I always loved the XJ (almost got one instead of my TJ originally).
Anyway I plan to do some Light offroad but would love to do more. Will be daily driver.
Def want a 6 cyl auto. I like the look of the last update. My questions are in regards to the minor changes I saw from year to year. Correct me if I am wrong:
1. 96-99 has high pinion reverse cut front axle. 2000-2001 low pinion
2. 2000-2001 engine has 3 more HP and has distributor less ignition system using coil-on-plug ignition but pre 2000 engines have bigger exhaust ports.
I know it's minor stuff. Ultimately I hope to find a nicely kept XJ at a price I can afford. and if possible leather heh heh. =) Don't see too many 2 door 6 cyl auto's but that would be really nice. I am in NorCal. I would eventually add a mild lift and 31's and minor engine mods, rocker guards, sliders, front and rear bumper with tire carrier winch.
Any comments appreciated. I like leather / pleather just for easier clean up. I like the limited more for the monotone and i like that 2 tone interior on some. then again if i get a nice deal and those things are not present i don't mind.
