All over 200k miles.
General comments?
This machine is a tank. I've always been a domestic Jeep lover for off roading, but the LC has changed my mind.
Mods that have been done:
Full 6 in suspension lift from slee off road
Custom rims with 36 inch tires
Custom built bull bar
The truck actually rides better off road due the the suspension and tires, but is still reasonable comfortable on the road. Recently drove it from California to North Carolina with out a hiccup.
Everything that has gone wrong with the truck is minor for something with that many miles. Engine just churns along as if brand new.
Upholstery needs to be redone, but that is my only complaint about it as of right now.
This is a very reliable rig that will go anywhere.
