They've got the price high because of the miles. The 100's aren't really prone to oil leaks, may have been a sloppy oil change. Make sure it's oil and not power steering fluid.

Thanks for linking it . Whatever is leaking has been doing it for awhile . It looks like oily mud under there .

Take a peek at the CV boots. Seems a little premature at 81k miles for a CV boot to be puking but anything is possible. And if a boot gets torn or it starts leaking in earnest at the band it can make a big mess in a hurry.

Wow...looks about identical to the one I bought in Weston about 5 years ago...mileage and all. In 2005 that rig went for 16k plus a Wrangler. Lots of good advice here already.

Mine has been in south FL for 225k and my AC hasn't complained one bit. Receiver/CD player is still rocking too. Nothing should be leaking, so get under there and find out where that oil came from. CVs, Steering Rack, Tranny, Oil Pan, brake master cylinder, 3 diffs.

The detailing scratches you mentioned could have come from removing the fender flares. Most rigs down here came with them.

Definitely check for rust down below. I have also seen some on the roof by the windshield frame.

Looks well cared for from what they took pictures of.
