1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee TSI Description

I purchased this Jeep two years ago after it had sat for about 6 years. Besides needing a good clean up, there were a number of repairs that needed to be taken care of - most caused from simple neglect. Features include power seats, windows, and door locks, sun roof, A/C, Quadratrac (full-time 4WD), 4.0 litre L6 motor, leather interior, premium (for the day) sound system, heated seats and outside mirrors. 12-13 MPG in town, 18-19 on the highway. There is absolutely NO DEATH WOBBLE. This Jeep has been faithfully maintained every 3,000 miles and had its transmission serviced every 6,000 miles. If a part was worn or suspect, I replaced it. Most service records are included.
What's been done in the past two years:

·New suspension front and rear including shocks, springs, trailing arm bushings, sway bar bushings and end links, steering stabilizer, and track bar

·New exhaust from front to rear including the converter

·New door and body seals

·New battery

·Five new tires

·New brakes front/rear including new front calipers, rotors, and pads; rotors/ pads in the rear

·New ignition cap, rotor, wires, and plugs

·New wiper motor, switch, and relay

·Rust repair on left rear fender (I did both inner and outer)

·New headlights (the old ones simply wouldn't polish out anymore)

·Added roof rack and relocated spare

·New upper and lower door pins on both front doors

·Replaced left driver's door window motor

·Replaced crank trigger

·Replaced the sunroof (cheaper to replace the whole thing than repair the old one)

·Repaired the A/C

·New alternator


What I know still needs to be taken care of:

·Both inner rockers (including the sill corners at the rear doors) should be replaced. Patch panels are available for both bits.

·There's an intermittent coolant sensor warning (false) that I traced to a bad solder joint in the BCM (body control module)

·The intermittent wiper function doesn't work despite replacing the motor, switch and relay module. This one also traces back to the BCM.

·The CV joint for the front drive shaft needs to be rebuilt or replaced. The new CV runs about $100 (Rock Auto). I just don't have the time to replace it.

·The driver’s seat bottom skirt should be replaced as the vinyl is showing a good bit of wear.

·Both front door armrests have some small tears need to be recovered

·Rear flipper glass solenoid needs to be replaced. I rebuilt it once and it worked for a while but has finally just given it up.
I would love to keep this car but it needs to go as I've been traveling more this year than planned and bought something with better fuel mileage. I'm also including a small box of spares, a roof rack ladder (new in box, never installed), and a pair of new Jeep seat covers that I just don't have the patience to install.

This is being sold with a Bill of Sale. The title has some how gone missing.

Registration is NOT current and this car will NOT currently pass inspection in the state of Vermont without repairing the rockers.

The Jeep is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the listing at anytime. Deposit is NOT refundable.
