I bought this 1999 Cherokee at a local auction, It had belonged to the local Sheriffs Dept. One of the main reasons I was interested in this jeep is it was basically rust free, unusual for Illinois. My 1995 Trooper blew the tranny last summer so I was looking for a replacement. I am most interested in travel for this Jeep, I have a CJ5 for more serious stuff. So tires, small lift, roof rack off my Trooper maybe bumpers and hitch for my adventure trailer.

Not sure why but your post reminds me of probably my favorite XJ I owned super simple but was excellent. Was a 96 Sport, equipped with upcountry package(1" lift, full skid plates, rear LSD(that actually worked) I added factory ZJ upcountry coils and a simple 1" lift shackle to achieve a 2" lift, threw on a set of TJ Rubi take offs(30.5"), my current M4O winch bumper with M8k and it performed excellent. Went everywhere an XJ should, was very low maintenance, good economy etc.
