Jeep WJ questions

[Dr.Grand]

Nice buy! I love the interior. Mine is all black, which gets pretty hot haha

[Black_ZJ]

they tried to sell me a 3 yr 36k mile warranty, if i had bought it my payments would have went from $176 a month for 48 months to $196 a month for 60 months, essentially the warranty would have cost me an additional $3,400 and would have only been good for 3 years, what a joke

As plentiful as parts are for these are in the salvage yards there is no need for the extended warranty crap, plus you will likely never even have to worry about the drive train.

plus that $3400 that i'll save not buying the warranty will be more than plenty for most major repairs

How many v8 WJ's have you owned or worked on? Great power but very unreliable. Have you owned or even driven a WJ with the 4.0, much improved over the 4.0 in the ZJ, has better flowing intake manifold and exhaust header from the factory.

Our 4.7 WJ has 278K on it (99), and has been owned by almost everyone in our family at one time or another. It is on transmission number 2, but the 4.7 is going strong.

Nice find! I have a 2000 WJ 4.7 and I just rolled 200k on it! The only thing I wish I could change on mine are the seats. It was a great buy, but I could care less about a leather interior....I would much rather have the cloth seats.

[mustangwarrior]

yea the leather cracks after awhile

had to spend money on her already today, the window regulator took a dump so i had to drop $100 bucks on a new one, was alot easier to change the part than i expected it to be

I once had a problem with driver's side window regulator. Turns out it wasn't regulator. It was cables that go from the door to the vehicle. From opening and closing so much, the cables started to break. An electrician soldered them for a few bucks. Happened twice. That may not be your case, but it's something to keep in mind in case it happens again.
