General Comments:

I love this Jeep.

It is important to consider the miles on this jeep when looking at the maintenance performed.

It still has the power of the 4.0 engine; I can easily take most vehicles (get going faster then them) off the line at red lights.

I almost think that jeep made a mistake with this model and built it too well; I and you may notice that you still see many on the road.

Faults:

Replaced starter (took on too much mud and water)

Replaced valve cover gasket.

Replaced clutch slave (inside bell housing $450 P&L)

Shift knob stripped out (not replaced yet)

Tail light cracked (not replaced)

Drivers door not lined up (hinge bad)

Front fender bent because of door not being lined up.

General Comments:

Installed third row seating. (now 7 seat belts)

Went through 3 1/2 feet of water/mud with no lift.

I put on 30/9.5 R15 tires with no mods or rub.

I did not 'high center' when girlfriend's CJ5 74' did on ATV Trail.

Installed front military hook and two tow hooks to the factory front bumper. It had a 2 inch rec in the rear when I bought it. I normally have a 'hitch haul' attached to the rear with a tool box that I use as most people use their trunk, but I can remove mine and bring it with me (God bless the hitch haul with a tool/truck box on it)

I've been stuck 2 times total so far.

Once in the Outer Backs when I tried to help someone else out while they were stuck. The sand was very deep and loose and I ended up sitting on the diffs spinning all the wheels.

The second time I got stuck was in a place called 4 corners in Virginia. It is just a big mud hole which all the locals go and play around in. I could have drove under most of the trucks there (that's a lie, but they all have 6 inches lift plus and 38's.) That is where I blew up my starter and clutch slave. They said I would never make it, but I did 4 times in a row!!! The mud/water went all the way up to the window seals.

I have 1 girlfriend, 4 children and 3 dogs. If I use the 'hitch haul', I can bring everyone and all the stuff.

Best part of this Jeep, I only paid $1000 for it!!!

Faults:

I recently replaced front brakes pads.

Changed headlights, a couple of heater hoses, valve cover gasket.

General Comments:

I paid a pretty price for my '92 Cherokee Limited 1 year ago, but so far it has been worth every penny. She was in tip top shape then (still is), everything works, and the paint job still looks like new. She had only 79000 miles on her and has proven to be fast and very reliable. She handles very well... accepts all challenges on the road, and wins most. This is largely due to an awesome overdrive, which makes her leap forward like a racehorse.

Her 10 year old straight 6, 4.0 Liter engine is pretty quiet and runs like a dream. I had the engine diagnosed on a Pep Boys computer, and they said it was like new... up to factory specs, and no problems. Pretty awesome for a 10 year old vehicle!

The interior - light tan leather - though a little on the close side if you're tall, makes up in comfort what it lacks in room. Only problem is there's really no place to install anything up front! I added a booming stereo system, had to use up the trunk, but am unable to hide the equalizer from vandals.

Overall, this is a great car, my second, even though I have driven others. More comfortable than Ford Explorer, smoother handling than Chevy Blazer, more economical than Mitsubishi Montero, better view that any little car; I even enjoyed driving it more than Pontiac Firebird.

Regular maintenance and TLC will make this car last forever... it's the toughest little SUV on the road. Lotsa imitators, but the Cherokee has earned its stripes and deserves every one of them.
