Not A Quitter... An(other) Adder

So, I did a thing...
Out of “necessity” as I needed transportation while working in Japan. Decided on a RHD 2000 XJ Limited 4.0L. Great shape, zero rust, 78K miles on the original body and drivetrain as verified on inspection. Never owned one before so I figured what the heck...

 

GREAT vehicles. The original SUV.

Jealous.

Bring back and sell it to a rural mail carrier.

 

I Bought The Last year that they made this model ; 2001 . We have driven it every day since ! Got 200 Thousand on the clock. Thinking of selling it for 3000.00. Great Jeep !

 

Finally able to get the baby BFG’s mounted yesterday. Had them shipped to my APO address in Japan... from purchase to delivery in 10 days with Amazon. No tax, no shipping! Much better than what was installed for the snow and general off road use we will see on the weekends.

 

Excellent tires.

 

Hey Ya'll ,
Just finishing installing 4) brand new Pirellli M & S , 245 70 16's . PO wanted them gone. They are on Ford steel rims , with a 7" backspace. Put 1/2" spacers on , ET lug nuts , & center caps with a cool decal . Painted them Black. Did it all for 300.00 Scoots. This is after I R&R'd my rear leaf springs & installed Monro coil over shocks . What a Job that was ! I'd post pics , but this is the CJ Forum ?
Oh , what the Hell .....................

 

What vehicle...?

 

2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ, 4.0 auto, 4 Dr Sport

 

First official wash, wax and detail. Ready for the weekend!!

 

Chris... It looks great ! I'm Curious .... What Is ' CONUS ' ? Is it were your Stateside ' 71 CJ5 Lives ?

 

CONUS= Continental US. Yes, my CJ-5 had to stay in the states while I’m working in Japan.

 

Thanks , my Friend... sometimes I amaze myself at my naivety. Your XJ is in pristine condition, for it's year. Congratulations.

 

Am I now an “unquitter”? Sold the XJ yesterday in preparation for our repatriation back to the states. A great vehicle for sure without a single issue during the 10k miles we owned it for. Would definitely buy another one...

 

You coming back to va, or elsewhere? If so, we'll have to get together to go jeeping someday

 

Back to Va. We kept our house there along with the shop, Jeep’s and motorcycles. And everything has been kept running by my son, so that’s a plus!!
