Who bought this Cherokee S?
I thought I saw a post about this, but maybe i'm mistaken. The Jeep sold in a few days. It's about as nice as you would find, assuming it's original.

yep thats me
picked it up about 2 weeks ago and have been getting it ready to drive every day. it does have 19k miles on it, is in more or less is in turn key shape, and i got about a grand worth of extra parts. fixed 2 small rust spots and am changing all of the fluids for good measure cause it sat so long, eventually i'll do the 4 hard brake lines that haven't been done. i'm also not a big fan of block and shackle lifts so i have a bj's 4" kit on the way from washington. i just put a set of 33x12.5r15 wrangler duatracs on it yesterday and so far i'm a big fan of these tires i gotta say. the am/fm radio doesn't work but i have a feeling it's something stupid, the speakers seem alright but when i turn it on i get a popping noise out of the right front speaker only... any ideas? and yes i am looking for a good condition factory tape deck to put in(i actually make tapes from vinyls as my preffered method of recording), other then that the front seats need to be re-upholstered and the front carpet needs replacing. this morning she has an appointment for a fresh layer of military grade under coating and this after noon it's tranny and diff service time in the shop. i'm also trying to figure out a swing out tire carrier that will bolt up right over the factory bumper and use the factory holes, and i have a smittybuilt xrc10 winch with the synthetic line off of the wrangler i just sold that i'm hoping will fit into the ramsey hidden winch system. take it easy guys, when i remember i'll snap some more pictures of everything.  |

Very Nice!!
I saw that one listed for quite a while. It seemed too good to be true. He also had it listed in a couple different cities (Suffern NY, as well as Long Island). Thought it was a scam for sure. Too clean & only 19,000 miles. Glad to see that it was the real deal and it fell into the right hands. Good luck with her!!

thanks everybody.
took some shop/truck pictures for the photobucket. the tires in there are the ones that came off the truck they are 32x11.50r15 dunlop rt/xv radial overs re-treaded with the treads from a ten wheel dump truck and they are up for sale, i'd say they are good mud/offroad tires just didn't wanna run them on the highway all the time, they are roughly 33" tall. now i'm off to change some fluids.
