I need some help deciding on what to do.
I have a 1994 jeep cherokee with 176xxx miles on it. For the most part it has turned into a money pit. (I have owned it for 6years) Mostly due to it was only ment for off roading or hauling stuff and from my other car having serious issues it got turned into a daily driver for near 2 years. Well now everything is wrong with it, tranny slipping, t-case leaking, oil pan leaking, all my hard brake lines are really corroded, tranny cooling lines leaking, axle seals leaking (but the 4.0L still running strong and no smoke! lol). My uncle ownes his own mechanics shop and he belives due to the money I have to put into it to keep it reliable he suggests time for a newer jeep.
Thats my issue a new jeep. I really can use recomendations.... I looked at cherokees and the ones under 100K miles people want a forturne for them like 5-7K. Was looking at 98-99 cherokees as there arguably the best years. Wranglers.... well there so much in decent shape any TJ that I saw on internet might as well save an extra few thousand and get a JK :/
But then theres the Liberty..... I know can say not a "real" jeep but it does have a decent power train in axles and t-case, the 3.7L is just ok. has 4 doors like XJ but the Libertys aftermarket sucks. As a 2002-2004 Libertys at like 100K miles is like 5K.
I dont know, any suggestions anyone has for any thing I would appresate!
