I"m not sure how many miles are on the engine, but it checks out perfect. No smoke, same plugs for 2 years, still like new. Doesn't burn oil, but does have a small mandatory rear seal or valve cover leakage, Just one of two little drops. I just add about 1qrt of oil every 2 months. Too small to mess with. The Transmission has been worked on by someone, and it's fantastic. You would have to drive it to understand. It has recently developed a Gasket leak in the trans, but is an easy fix. At idle it the engine has a lope to it, but I have no idea what if anything has been done to it. It's super tight and unbelievably responsive. Massive amount of torque and power. Again, you would have to drive it to appreciate it. Nothing can touch it until the RPM peaks at 4k.
It goes down the hwy smooth as silk and at 3K Rpm it is doing 60-65 miles an hour. I've been using it as a daily driver, but all you have to do is add a set of paddle tires and you set for Glamis or the Sand. Or keep the regular tires on it, and use it in the Mud or Snow. I've never needed any 4wd in the dirt, or mud, I just "power" thru it. If you have any questions please call and ask. ***This is a 2wd Jeep with D2 Straight front Axel. It is Manual Brakes and Manual Steering
