That's good,I know where to find a low mile replacement.;);)

Who said I'd be selling it? :D

Who said he'd be buying it? Hey Ridenby, I've a 22' deck-over with a decent ramp and a Ramsey 15K winch up front hooked up to a 3/4 ton chev. I'm on my way!!!

Even in Park with the E brake on I'm sure we'll be able to drag it up.:D

'05...original owner...only 69,514 miles...I know it isn't 100k but if you knew the owner...SHOCKED.gifI would honestly bet that my KJ has seen 105 MPH more than any other or it is at least in the top 5. I break 100 weekly. Clutch is dandy despite tons of clutch-dumping starts and the 1-2 power shifts have not caused any noticable problems with the ****** or rear. R. front axle seal is leaking as we speak, though.

Ball joint recall, front/rear brakes while it was apart for the lift, crappy springs replaced by said lift. The only big disappointment was the water pump dying at 17,000 miles. I put it down to "you can get a bad anything" and have had no issues since. Well, I have had one rear stop/turn light burn out...LOL.

I guess I don't qualify for the high mileage club but I can put my info here anyway for comparison.

I have an 05 with 46,8xx on it. I had the lower ball joint recall done. Rear pinion seal had a small leak and fixed under warranty. It was barely wet. Right front pinion seal had a small leak also. This was a real "dripper". It was fixed under warranty. Both happened under the 3/36. Right rear tail light fuse blew out for some reason? I only noticed it because it also took out the instrument cluster lights. It happened at night of course. Never happened again. Other than that all I have done is routine fluid changes.

02 limited, original owner, purchased july 01, 106k miles.

Radiator replaced a 45k miles from pin-hole leak. Recalls done. normal maintenence to front/rear diff,transfer case and ******, many many oil changes. lots of air filters. front pads replaced once, then later new rotors and pads. rears are oem even still!. RR brake broke a return spring at 40k. no issues with window regulators. replaced 2 left speakers and one right on "premium sound" system. 2 sets tire changes. one extra alighment due to and "got airborne" episode in the early years. headlight replacement. PS and belt tensioner replaced. running on 4th battery including oem. Dash, shifter and tail-lights sometimes need a little fonzie-tap to keep-um shining bright.

Overall still a very strong runner. Many good memories-and more to come

Go Jeep!:D

I'm at 110,250 today. I've had the lower ball joints replaced on a recal (Free), replaced the oil pressure sensor($12), the washer fluid pump (Free), a few coils ($40), the steering collumn due to chryslers inconsiderate engineering on the cylinder lock ($220) and thats it I think. $300 worth of maintenance over the past 2 years isn't bad, if It only costs me $150 per year to keep this thing running that really not bad, only about $0.41 a day. I love this thing and hope it lasts another 110k.

Ball joint and Knee blocker under recall. Full Chrysler/Jeep service at 48000km (30000miles) inc. all fluids and new plugs etc. FOllowed the Chrysler plan ever since and no problems at all except replacing the TPS at about 55000km.

No changes to my maintenance history:

Handbrake ratchet assy replaced under bumper-to-bumper warranty. <36,000
Water pump went at 82,000.
Ignition switch failure at 78,000
Replaced tensioner at 86,000

edit: 90,000 not 89,000. Oh, and it rolled over...

Just did cam sensor/ alternator yesterday, Ball joints (2) times per recall. Everything else normal maintenance. Not to bad for 226,000!! Averaging 19.2 MPG.

Now time to do a little body work. Some rust is developing above the rear gate. Thinking about a lift of some sort....Need to research.

My 03 has ~155,*** miles on it. Replaced the ac clutch, inner and outter right tie rods but should have only been the outter except someone cross threaded the inner. Tires, brakes, oil changes, both front hub bearings(they need done again soon), Will be fixing both front UCAs with JBAs soon. Had to replace both tail lights and the plugs to the harness. BDS lift, have new front bilsteins just been too lazy to install.
