    I’ve done much the same with my ‘98 zj, it’s a pretty rewarding process because they respond so well to repairs and proper maintenance. Nice video.

    Hell yah bro sweet video, I recently bought an 2001 Cherokee XJ with 250k. I've been following the order you pretty much have laid out, I need to do tranny oil next. Just did a coolant flush, you should make a video talking about the order of restoration on an older XJ with high mileage! I'd appreciate it man

    • @KCars
      @KCars  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching! I don’t think I’d change much for what i’d do to an older Jeep with higher mileage.

  • @Fusterclucked00
    @Fusterclucked00 Рік тому

    I wish I could buy a sexy blue 2001 XJ with only 103k miles on it in my area for $4,000. Anything that price is going to be a parts car or a "needs repairs" at best. I just had to settle for a 2000 XJ Sport with 185k for $6,500, which was $500 under asking price. But it's what I wanted when I wanted it...

    • @KCars
      @KCars  Рік тому

      I got super lucky with this one and I think the previous owners didn’t realize the true value and I also bought it right before the prices went crazy back in 2020. At least you got one though, enjoy it!
