Make sure and follow me on Instagram and facebook, I post update pictures of my projects on there.
The Bootheel Kid I've got a 2000 Jeep Cherokee sport, Love it to death. This is my 2nd one, bought it last year. Problem is I didn't do the necessary checks. Now I've got a knocking sound when accelerating. Mechanic told me it sounds like a piston broke or something and that I should just drive it until it dies. Any suggestions that don't involve letting my old faithful die?
I mean you can always find another engine for it. If it does drop another 4.0 in it and keep on truckin
The Bootheel Kid the injectiors that are in it are 4 hole injectors
99 has distrubuter also. 2000 and 2001 is coil packs
The Bootheel Kid I live in Tennessee right now and was wondering how many miles your Jeep has I’ve been on the lookout for one to drive in a couple of years but all are 200000 mile or more
Breaks my heart these classic jeeps are all starting to decay, and nothing anything like it is coming. I wish they still made cars like this.
I know. Jeep just keep targeting soccer moms with their cars. I'm surprised they haven't put out a minivan yet.
It's because of all the safety crap that's now required in the USA. Last vehicle NOT to "ding ding ding" you to death for driving without a seatbelt = XJ Jeep's.
Floor pans and a welder homie. Get to work.
@@skeetorkiftwon just did that but made my own from the trunk of a Plymouth roadrunner. All corrosion has been romoved underneath and covered with rust reformer primer and coated in acrylic. Northern winters were hard on it but I can't stand it when people let their vehicles rust.
@@dickJohnsonpeter
That's a big belly on that beast. Congrats on getting her done. I hope the rest of your restoration goes without a hitch. Getting harder and harder to find even a good mil on replacement panels.
Buddy of mine bent his own everything for a 40s Peterbilt restoration he's doing.
I bought my '88 brand new on January 16, 1988 and still have it.
I bought something very similar to what you bought back in 1998. I purchased a new 1997 Jeep Wrangler TJ back in 1996. She is still with me today and I love her today like the first time.
My dad bought a 1989 2 door silver XJ and he still owns it. It's 4x4 and has a rebuilt motor but runs perfect and the body looks brand new still
I have a 2001 XJ, purchased new in March 2001. Still have it and runs like new.
b4ssfunk3d what motor?
Wow that awesome. You should make a video of your Jeep
"Not a distributor... but the... uh.... awww hell...you know what I'm talkin about" - me on a daily basis
How long did it take you to think of this comment? @algore lier
Coil on plug
That’s why I like these jeeps so much. They are easy to fix, inexpensive and durable. Thanks for the video I have a 2001 XJ 60 anniversary.
The Bootheel Kid I bought a '98 Jeep Cherokee Classic last month, 4x4 with a rebuilt straight six, absolutely love it. Great video.
Got a 1999 Jeep Cherokee classic 4x4 for free. Changed battery, had to get a rear view mirror, recharged ac, & crankshaft position sensor went bad. That was it. Runs like a champ.
Update wasn’t sensor, it was fuel pump. But i got a new one with the Jeep anyways lol
@@Ginger_Vet1992 How do you tell the difference between a bad crankshaft position sensor and a bad fuel pump ?
Appreciate you for making this video. My neighbor had a very clean jeep like yours and I went through everything you said to go through and I found out he had swapped the engine and the whole deal was sketchy after that so I opted out. Thanks man appreciate it
Awesome video. I'm on my third XJ and this is an extremely relevant video for anyone looking to get one!
Your Jeep looks so similar to mine that my mum had before she sold it. It just gave me so much nostalgia.
Great info for buyers, and such tips helped me in selecting my 2000 jeep xj. Came with the 4 litre, black paint, 4wd np231, aw4 trans, dana 30 front, chryco 8.25 rear with factory LSD. Also good to note that in California the 2000 and 2001 only require the OBD-II test when passing smog and not the sniffer as the 99 and older models require.
You gotta watch the head on it depending on the casting numbers, they have a tendency to crack.
Great video thanks, Found a 1994 Jeep Cherokee Sport 6 years ago with 92 thousand original miles, original owners, all maintenance records garaged for many years in florida, touched up some paint fade replaced the headliner, and some other minor parts, there is no rust on this jeep starts right up and runs like a champ
Excellent tips here! Great idea putting a switch to the electric fan. These jeeps tend to run hot and keeping them cool adds A LOT to its longevity. Love these vehicles.... Owned 6 XJ's and ALL but one have gone over 300K miles on the original engine. Rust killed them.. (currently driving one with 180K) Yes....that door bushing will get them all sooner than later. Worst place for rust is the where the rear shocks are welded to the unibody. They tend break away from the frame or rust right up through the bed. This killed 3 of the XJ's I've owned. Yeah the 99 to 01 have a cam sensor and coil pack as part of the ignition. Crankshaft sensors like to go on these XJ's no matter the year, if you get a no start or stalling especially when hot, I usually look here first and pay the extra for an original MOPAR one. Oh one last thing they like to develop cracks on the exhaust manifold so open the hood and check for leaks there with it running. Great video, enjoy that Jeep!
Great video with some awesome straight-forward tips i was laying back after a hard day's work and really enjoyed this. Just learning about Jeep stuff currently, to help a friend who's starting to look at these models and the Cherokee after these too. much underrated vehicles (except by the jeep enthusiasts) here in Australia. Our market tends to be dominated by Landcruisers and Nissan equivalents from around this era.
Thank You for the video. I have been thinking of buying a 1999+ Cherokee. Your tips on what to look for will come in very handy. Enjoyed your knowledge of what to look for.
Thanks for the info, I love this JEEP XJ, and I'm looking for one right now!
The '99 Cherokee XJ has a distributor. 2000 was the introduction of coil packs.
Tom Wendelgass You are correct sir. My dad bought his 1999 brand new from the Jeep dealership, now mine with original engine that has a distributor. His 2000 XJ is electronic ignition.
1999 is a distributor style ignition system not coil packs.
Which is better
That's kind of weird tho.i know the cherokee and grand cherokee are different models (xj-wj) but I have a 99 grand cherokee (wj) with the 4.0 in it but it has the coil pack in it?why would they do the distributor on the cherokee but switch to the coil on the Grand Cherokee in 99?I'm jus kind of curious if anyone can answer or help out 🤷🏼♂️lol
@@thanatikid1620 It is the evolution of taking older 'new' tech and applying it to older model 'lower' tech models.
Grand Cherokees had higher grade parts (electronic ignition/coil packs) in earlier years.
This was applied to the later 2000/2001 model Cherokee model as an upgrade.
It is also the convergence of Parts for economy of production and ease of aftermarket/replacement availability (as they are interchangeable)...manufacturers need to engineer/build few parts.
The one I just bought is perfect no rust the lady never drove it in the snow she always drove her 4runner
There is a nice climate in this movie, brother. And a quite decent knowledge of Jeep. Thank you and all the best!
Thank you so much for this video! I had already bought a 98 Jeep but this confirms some of my suspicions and gives me directions on how to fix.
Glad it helped you!
Thanks for the video! I'm in the market for a 1990s XJ after the repair place said it would cost $8k to fix my beloved 1994 Grand Cherokee. I'm headed to Colorado next year for school and need a reliable, off road capable car and there's nothing better than a Jeep.

What was wrong with your XJ?
L200 2004
Dear lord this would've been helpful when we bought mine. I now own a 98 XJ. We got it for 1250 in my home state of Michigan, and god damn it has like half these issues. The rust is horrendous but overall better than most from the state. The U-joints, no AC, the valve cover gasket was bad but the first bolt on the front was sheared off and difficult to replace. The electrical fan was shot. The list goes on and on. And this was the best wone we saw being offered within 250 miles!
I've put almost 4000 into it in repair shop and personal work charges, and my flippin god, it still has issues. I know it always will, but sometimes it gets too overwhelming.
My hubby just bought me a 1993 Jeep Cherokee Laredo this weekend for $1500. I love it . Mine is green too.
the best “what to look for” when buying xj video I’ve seen. Thanks man
I appreciate that! thanks for watching
Great informative video. As a newbie just getting interested in jeeps (from watching the yellow banana on Winder Towing's channel) thank you! With your advice, my future first Jeep went be a nightmare. Thanks!
Yeah don’t buy them .. leave them for me.. ha ... best of all jeeps xj’s
nice informative video, I am considering purchasing a 1988 Jeep Cherokee Pioneer for my granddaughter this will be her first car. You have given me so good info to look at thank you.
Great video! I’ve always owned CJ’s and just now getting into XJ’s. thanks for all the great tips, the rust runs wild up here in North Idaho.
Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it
Nice video, wish I would have seen it earlier. Went and bought a ‘92 for our son and paid $2400, mainly because it only had 127k on it, plus being older = easy to work on. It does have rust on the floorboards, after taking everything out, a good rain came through and I found it was leaking at the fuse box, so take a look there too. The steering/suspension needed work, but the parts were in the back waiting to be installed! No complaints really, once the fixes are done, I feel this will be a long running beast!
97 Cherokee with 76k miles....seat is golden.
THIS IS Awesome! Thanks for listing all your parts I want to restore mine to its old self as it's getting old. I don't have either problems with the door or the seat, I have been in any out of my car millions of times in the last 19 years so maybe it has a weight restriction ;) I am 5'9 and 145 so I see the issue here. Jeep should know! I have no rust in Seattle, WA and I take it Skiing all the time too. Mine is a daily driver with 123 thousand miles on it, go figure, I don't like to commute. No Leaks, the sunroof is an easy fix when it does as a simple screw comes lose in the motor box, once you screw that back in your sunroof will latch again. No U-joint issue. I do have an oil leak coming from somewhere but it's been that way for about 8 years same leek so I just check the oil regularly. Now I gotta check all the other stuff this weekend. Thanks for all the help! And if your throttle thing is getting stuck spray some choke fluid on the line and rev the engine with it while the car is turned on. It may just have rust or gunk on it it fixed a similar issue for me. My Jeep is totally stock I wish it had less flaws from a-holes hitting me in the parking lot. I do have a transmission cooler, my Dad put it on 19 years ago.
We used to have a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4, the seat bracket broke 4 times. Finally we took the whole thing out and welded up and made our own bracket, never had a problem again!
My door hinges and seat brackets are solid but, those damn door checks break often. Rust, the rain gutters, and the roof.
commas go before but
Really, go before the butt????
😝
Thanks 🙏

Fluid Film is your friend
Also may want to add into this, the rear of the subframe “where the gas tank fill hose runs through” rusts and cracks. Especially when they have a hitch receiver.
Thanks for spending the time.. looking for an XJ for my 16 year old son's first Vehicle (and for me to play with!!!)
Beautiful Jeep. Great mix of stock looks and aftermarket lift tastefulness
Really rust is the only thing you need to check for on these if your mechanical inclined. The rest can be fixed pretty easily and you have a solid base to build from
What a wealth of knowledge!! Thank you for that sir! I’ve had my 98 zj about 6 months and I’m still learning everyday paid $2000 for it put $1200 down replacing the front end at a shop the clock says 278000 miles nowand it’s a good running daily! Not to mention it’s a rust free California jeep
Thank you for this video, I just looked at an old Cherokee today. (95) Sure, some rust here and there but nothing big.
I have 3 WJs and I so feel you on the rust .
That is one cool looking Jeep you have there, the newer ones are nice, but that specific model (to me at least) is the best looking Jeeps ever made
Agree. Wish they would've kept that one forever.
I know its been a day since you made this vlog, but I'm about to build a Jeep to go overlanding over Sweden, Norway, Hungry, Romania, and Bulgaria. I don't need to be breaking down out in those places. So your informative vid was spot on and is helping me in finding a good Cherokee. My daily driver is a F150 so I can take my time in finding a building a good overlanding Cherokee. Thanks again friend, feel free to send me additional help or recommendations.
Im glad that you have found the information useful
Awesome job on the Jeep brotha! Reminds me how much I miss the one I had for over 20 years.
I have three xj 2000s. Very good vehicles and your comments are correct regarding rust and seat damage. One of mine is approaching 500.000 miles. Just keep them well maintained and they last a long time!
Good info here. I just saw a 99 sport pop up with a hurt motor. Going to see what they will take for it. Asking price is a grand. If I can get it for 500ish might be a winter project for me.
Great video, lots of good info. just bought an 01 for 950 bucks at auction. Only area of concern of those you listed is the rear quarters. 83k miles. Swapped upper control arms, radiator, thermostat, rear bumper. Still drips a little from rad. cap area after shut off when at temp. I think I got a pretty good deal. Thanks for the vid. Subbed :)
Thanks for the sub, And thanks for watching. I hope this video helps others that are looking at buying an XJ. That doesn't sound like a bad deal at all. Running with a title and less than 100k miles is well worth that. You can get patch kits for just about every spot that rusts on these things these days.
Thanks for the info! Now I know what to look for.
It's more than a year later since you made this video, and I hope you're still having fun with your XJ.
Thanks glad this will help, and yes sire I am. Building a new rear storage solution as I type this and video it for TH-cam.
Ignition coils is the thing you couldn't think of. Very helpful video. Thanks a lot.
Thank you and thanks for watching
Definitely a fun easy to work on vehicle. I had the busted vacuum canister on mine... I don't think it's strictly for cruise control. My XJ didn't even have cruise when I bought it, but it had the canister, and it leaked. Buy a cruise steering wheel, clockspring, plug in and route the cable/cruise thingy and presto you now have cruise control as if it came from the factory. Very easy, satisfying mod. I wired in a pwr doorlock switch (from a Ford Explorer,) near the tailgate so I can lock up from the tailgate or open the other locks without having to go back to the front doors. It's up inside the small cubby, at the top so I didn't have to mess up any plastic, it's out of sight and and less likely for other objects to hit the button. Wires were a straight shot down the right hand side to the front passenger foot well to tap into the factory PWRL wires.
my door bushing went out when i removed the plastic skirt under the front fenders. those skirts keep the dirt, mud, and sand off of the door hinges. i have seen pool noodles used to replace the skirts and they will keep the grime off of the hinges
Thanks I'll be in touch very helpful info I'm currently looking for a 98
Lots of good information here. Thanks for posting.
11:26 LOL he's talking about coil packs, right? I was waiting for it to come on the screen! Learned a lot!
Ive had some 2wd xjs and never had a problem in snow or anything really 4wd is definitely awesome but dont let it deter u from getting a clean xj
That makes no sense if you are buying it for serious off roading which most people do
@@josheakins5137 well then thank god i didnt get mine for serious off roading.
very informative..helpful & I'm thinking of lookin for another..so thanx
11:40 "AWH HELL" XD I loved that
Great video tho. Thanks for the info. It was really useful.
Very detailed video, great job! Thanks!
Thank you for watching
Make sure you save up for a transmission rebuild around 150000 miles, the sensor for the electric fan and the sensor for the ABS brakes, electric window cable, as for the back hatch it will either not open or it won't lock, headlight lens will go to crap if you don't keep up on your maintenance. I've had more Jeeps than any other vehicles the transmissions are crap some are even made by Toyota and the ABS system sensor has suckered many of owner to replace the calipers because the brakes lock up it's the sensor 90% of the time. The 4.0 is a beast of a motor but the transmission is crap as I previously stated all and all I love them my daily driver is a 2000 Jeep Grand Cheroke with 284000 miles AC is still ice cold and it looks brand new the paint is in amazing condition for a 20 year old vehicle, everything I mentioned had to be done the transmission went south right at 150000 just like the previous 3 they are great vehicles as long as you know what you getting into. One other think if either sensor I mentioned goes bad ie the fan doesn't shut off after you turn the vehicle off or the brakes stay locked even when turned off you will be buying batteries guess how many I had to buy before I figured it out. I really wished that I had known someone who had the experience to help with all the trouble shooting early in my Jeep accumulation but I was on my 5th one when I help a friend's uncle move had never met him but when I pulled up in my Jeep we started talking come to find out this man retired from Jeep as a engineer who specialized on the 4.0 straight 6 and the flood gates opened he was very kind and helpful telling all the things I am sharing with you so I hope it helps btw the reason Jeep did away with the 4.0 was because it was getting to many overall miles and possibly preventing new sales think about that for a second.
Great video man! Good info. Thanks!!!
I have a 2000 jeep cheerokee just like the one on the video same color too for 5 years now . I'm 3rd owner, already has over 200,000 miles still runs great. Only thing I've had to replace is the crankshaft.
You left out when your looking to buy any year model XJ Cherokee is to get in and drive it, and check for and vibration in the steering or wobble aka the “Death Wobble”, and or alignment issues. Great video, Thanks.
I was interested in getting one but now this video has me second guessing haha
I got a 98 a while ago. It’s amazing. Just don’t buy one that is expensive. They are really good and not very expensive to fix.
Love this video Man. Appreciate the knowledge
I just put a 2000 4.0L in my 92 Cherokee runs great 👍
Your thinking of a coil pack.
Great video man.
I looked at two xj's before I purchased the one I have.Two door white 2001 sport with 68k.
I paid very good money for it and spent many more on maintenence.
Long list,but I don't mind spending the money because I feel my Cherokee is a future classic and I am going to keep it.
Thanks for this. Potentially going to look at a 2000 sport tomorrow
Did you buy it?
@@TheBootheelKid naw. It ended up selling before I could get over to look at it.
Your Jeep is exactly what I have been looking for with the mild lift, roof rack and so forth.. nice...
Superb Media Content Creator thank you
Great content. Thanks
Yellow ford 4.6 v8 injectors really improve idle and performance of the 4.0 ltr. L6 jeep motor. I think their 4 hole.
Highly recommend them.
You forgot about the frame where the steering box bolts go. Thats the first place youll find cracks if the jeeps been wheeld hard
good overall info I have a 88 xj one thing and vehicle type don't matter when splicing wires don't just twist together or use solderless crimp connectors invest in a soldering gun and you'll never have to worry about a connection corroding or getting loose and going bad
Thanks a lot for the info man! Very much appreciated!!
Glad you enjoyed it
I have a 93 and haven't had any of these problems... Southern Kentucky.
My 99 Xj has almost 350,000 miles and is still like new... DEFINITELY BEST VEHICLE EVER BUILT...
350,000 :-O OMG! Then I'm only halfway there!
Good video. Thanks for doing it. Good luck with your channel.
thank you for your honesty...good vid.
Others may have mentioned these already. 1) The updated ignition (coil pack vs. distributor) was 00-01, a typical 99 is still distributor based. 2) 00-01 0331 Head defect (coolant in the oil) 3) The vacuum reservoir in the front controls HVAC air flow ("only blows defrost" issue) as well as cruise control. 4) Wrangler (00+) and GC (99+) 4.0 engines are incompatible with XJ mount points 5) Rust/crap over the hatch and roof rack leaks. That said - great video, definitely hit the critical concerns when comparing XJs.
Does that head defect show up as a misfire? I have an occasional but persistent misfire on my '01 but I'm not losing coolant or finding it in the oil nor any other usual signs of head gasket issues.
Man I have seen dealing with the same exact issue and I can not find it either
@@TheBootheelKid Yeah, it got me stumped. The misfire is on cylinder 3 and sometimes 6. I checked compression and those cylinders were about 10-15 psi low, but then I checked the others and they're all that low, so I figure that's just because it's 220k miles old.
@@neill.m.herbert cylinder 3 misfire is generally just a vapor lock in the fuel injector and typically happens on a heat soaked engine. Jeep actually had a recall for this issue. Insulated my injectors with old spark plug boots. Just insulate the injectors with spark plug boots and it will solve the issue. The problem occurs when the engine is hot the heat rises from the exhaust manifold and causes the vapor lock in cylinder 3.
My man you may have just solved an issue I've been having for the last 12 months that I haven't been able to diagnose.
after owning countless jeeps heres my thoughts, tip number 1, you dont buy a jeep with the thinking you got an instant daily driver, most jeeps were maintained for probably their first 50/75K then after that they start to be neglected, then parts start going bad, they sell it, the second person spends a ton of money in parts, gets tired of that, he too sells it, etc, etc
tip 2, check roof rails, ive seen a lot have the mounting holes rusted out leaving big holes in your roof, the water dont drip through the headliner, it has a gutter type system up there that guides it down to your floor board.
tip3, people buy 4 wheel drive jeeps second hand because they want to go off road, some of which abuse them before selling them.
What if you are a mechanic and a 2000 is on the scopes. AZ car. Thoughts man talk fast?
Weld that shit
carolina beacher so you dont recommend them?
Well you are a woman, what do you know.
@@patrickbrown5659 far more than you obviously, im not a woman, most likely old enough to be your gradfather or father and a life long mechanic who grew up in salvage yards even owned one for about ten years, you know what we had a lot of in the yard destroyed? jeeps.
I bought my 2 door, 4 cyl. 4 spd. in 92, and it was great, all except the drivers seat. Once that was fixed,,,,,,,, smooth. Wish I still had it.
Love my 88, by its broke down 10x more than I getta drive it. Now it's got two issues that just will not go away!
Does that 88 have the 4 banger or is it the i6 4.0?
I bought my 99 for $700 and put 10k miles on in 6 months and only had to re place a few major things but still runs good with 228k miles on it
304,000 miles on mine till I gave it to my son. After 400,000 miles, it is now a trail only Jeep that he sold to his friend.
1993 jeep grand cherokee 88k original miles still breaking it In lol
Bought my 96 for $375 dead in the yard got it running for $400 more and still doing good except for a waterpump ,which was my fault, and a distributor. 186k.

When he said you need to look at the rockers for rust I said what rockers I never had any🤷♂️
In the market and took notes. Thanks for a great heads-up video.
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing info. Thank you so much man!!!
The 4.0l didnt get a distributorless ignition till 2000. In 1999 they still had a distributor.
99 1/2.
Don’t forget headgaskets, cracked heads, for all 4.0’s and the weird cylinder 3 injector overheating problem in the 1999-2001 XJ’s specifically I believe
Have a 2000 and love the old girl. But runs on the warm side. Cooling fan has to help out way to much. But no heat at all. Not a hint. So... new radiator, heater core, check vacuum flap door or whatever...just empty every pocket. But I love her so I'm screwed.
Great looking XJ. 👍. Thx for posting. You know rust? We invented in here in Michigan. 🤣
mom passed down her 99 ive modified it a lot ! 3 inch lift, meaty tires , new fender flares , went from forest green to black , got a rack , crushed velvet ceiling and bedazzled steering wheel cover . all i need is lights on the bottom 😌
I am in the market for a jeep Cherokee XJ and your video is extremely helpful! Unfortunately, Jeeps have gone up in price in the last few years. I have a question: what’s your recommendation on fixing the doors that have become loose? You’re right, that is a common problem.
I got my Jeep for 800 with some flaws but it’s still good
Awesome
Going to look at a 97 Jeep Cherokee country, wants $1400, 150,000 miles, I'm taking notes on what to look for tomorrow, thanks! PS if I buy it, it will be the first Jeep I've owned.
Great walk-through, greetings from So-Cal
Thank you and hello
Thank you for the info. You've just talked me out of getting a Jeep for my next "toy".
As far as universal joints, if you lift your vehicle, yes, your universal joints will wear prematurely because you've changed the angle from stock.
Awesome
I just ordered a drop-down kit for my transfer case off of eBay to reset the pinion angle for my driveshaft. My jeep has a 4 inch lift that has a major rear end wobble. Also I’m going to replace the crush leave and pinion bearings on my dana35.Hopefully that clears it up.
just found a nice almost rust free red 1999 with 136,000 miles for $800.

Ford's Eddie Bauer Explorers and trucks were doing so well at that time, that all the competitors wanted to do the Green with Tan interior combo.
You ain't lying haha
Had a 95 green over tan. Loved that combo lol. Now a 99 green & grey.
I worked at Toledo jeep for 30 years 👍

Awesome advice! Awesome outro too!
