RTW in an XJ

The only thing that has worried me is the thought of breaking down in a foreign country. Do most country's have Jeep parts?

Depending on the continent.

Central and South America - every single country has a Jeep dealer.

Africa - not so much.

This map shows which countries have official Jeep presence.

Breaking down in a foreign country need not be stressful or scary. It's part of the adventure and a great way to make new friends.
One of the best afternoons of my whole trip was when I broke the radiator drain plug off my TJ in Alaska - I met a great mechanic who let me use some of his tools, then we stood around at 11:30pm in the sun drinking the beer I bought us :)
