Just bought a 99 4X4 inline 6 with 112k for 2200 today here in vegas...everything works. My 4th Grand Cherokee...love em

[@LuisHernandez-hz6yu]

Probably going to buy one with 180k , rwd, laredo trim I believe. Gonna have a mechanic check it . Seems like a well built and reliable car

[@felipeiturreyes3385]

I love mine Laredo, bare bones model... WJ is one of the most iconical SUVs in history

[@supdookayyy8108]

Idk man , tha Explorer pretty good

[@felipeiturreyes3385]

[@JasnoGT]

Me too man. I love my 2004 4.0 4x4:)

[@JasnoGT]

@@supdookayyy8108 Explorers are cool too. I loved my 1996. Had it for 5 years with limited problems. Pretty reliable.

[@dtshifter]

My wife has an 04 Larado 4.0L and we love it!

[@zaccorpseman7366]

Pick one up while you still can, these things are harder and harder to find

[@jamesdewer]

I've got a 2001 Limited with the 4.7. That engine rips. I had a new one installed 4 years ago and rewired the doors and switches. It's honestly 100% operational. All the interior lights work down to the glove box and ash tray. I installed a new power seat frame and motors. Besides the interior bits, parts a cheap. Very nice ride dogg.

I have a 2001(WJ) Laredo with 28S package (Appearance). V8, Quadratrac II. Bought it new. 83,000 now. Didn't want Limited because of troublesome ATC. This Jeep will go through anything. Love it ! Alot of people like the looks of the WJ over the other gens.

[@dentondunn4346]

Just bought my first used 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo with 4.0l Quadra Trac system. It's rust free, looks great and drives really good. I haven't had it off-road yet and curious if they good as one with a transfer case 4wd

[@MaiLex20]

The 4l inline 6 has a rep for being able to last like Toyota. Shame Jeep didn't keep it and use on Liberty and future Jeeps too😔

[@Jeepfeenz]

[@rcaive0875]

That's the engine my GC has. Absolutely trouble free with plenty of power. Jeep's biggest mistake was discontinuing that engine back in '06, now Jeep enthusiasts are hunting for them.

[@justinbuffalo5007]

i love my jeep special edition still fixing it up

[@bruceallen6016]

Just bought one of these with the 4.7 V8. Hoping for the best and thumb up for the review.

[@johnwestfall1634]

How is it going so far?

[@bruceallen6016]

@@johnwestfall1634 So far so good. Got the build sheet from Dodge and found it also has vari trak. Also upgraded the sound system as one channel in the Infinity system was blown. I do want to figure out how to improve fuel economy though. Overall it's very nice. 🙂

[@BigMateo24]

That's a highly desirable option package right there. 4.7l V8 with the heavy duty NV242 Select-trac transfer case. The T-case has a bigger chain than the 4.0l straight six NV242. They didn't make very many configured like that, most came with the NV247 Quadra-trac or Quadradrive. Of course, it's super common these day's to see people pulling out the quadradrive t-case in favor of the select-trac, it literally bolts in with almost no modifications needed. It has all the same gearing and 4wd options, just manually operated vs. automatic 4wd with the quadradrive. Well worth the asking price for that vehicle.

[@soundrecordings2659]

probably really high mileage, that has a front tow hook up, it got pulled around by a motorhome.

[@MeDicen_Rocha]

Another rare feature this has is the navigation system. If im not mistaken its a bit of a precursor to the RB1 radio's.

[@dentondunn4346]

Which 4wd outperforms the other

[@dentondunn4346]

You mean Quadra Trac system

[@ascendantrobin3230]

Ive owned 2 of these and currently drive a 2015 nissan, ready to get rid of it for another WJ ! 🤣🇺🇸😎

[@danielmoraga6474]

I've got a 2003 Overland with the 4.7 H.O and it´s the best...

[@rcaive0875]

My '01 GC had the same problem as the one in your video - the supports for the rear glass quit working. For a mere $25 and a couple of simple tools, however, I was able to replace them easily and now they hold the glass up just fine. If this happens to any of you, DO NOT take it to a shop or the dealer, they'll charge you an arm & a leg. If I can fix it easily at home, anybody can.

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

Best generation of the GC

[@davidtrevino5211]

Have you owned or driven a ZJ yet ?

[@DakotaJaegle]

yes and the wj is still better lol

[@Off-Road10]

Wow a WJ V8 with the select Trac. Very rare

[@copleyplayz9833]

my 04 WJ has the 4.0 in-line six. We are at about 245,000 miles.

[@tampaboyjames813]

Any issues im looking at a 04 with 148,000

[@moeanthony9308]

Thx Mike. Good review. They were even better when Daimler came around.

[@lwysparagon8109]

I love the Grand Cherokee 99 and I like a 4wd in blaze orange. This car is an unexpected perfect combination to me.

[@clintonphillips1361]

Yea the 4.7 is a beautiful engine and the cars are very nice and designed good . But I've been let down to many times sensors and electrical things

[@iruleyounow]

I had an 04 GC AWD with the 4.0 and I absolutely loved it. The ONLY reason I sold it was the lack of power. It couldn’t pass ANYTHING on the highway. It was such a dog. My brother had a 01 with the 4.7 and it was a night and day difference. Would definitely buy either one just not another AWD model. We both never really had any issues with our jeeps. Owned mine for 2 years and same for him.

[@michael7557]

Wait till you try an 04 with the 4.7l HO engine. Get a tuner for the engine and a drop in K & N replacement air filter, will put you just under 300 hp, and with the stock 3.73 gearing, it will get up and go.

[@jeffazarva6549]

My cherokee is fast

[@charleswildman137]

The WJ in this video is in exceptionally good condition

[@heshamgafri3954]

I would like to ask if the Jeep Grand Cherokee 1999 4.0 L has any issues regarding the Gear box (transmission) specially over heating?

[@Jeepfeenz]

Hey please go check out jeep feen'z on KZbin and subscribe!! Thank You

[@prikbastrd]

What size AT tires are on that please?

[@magopena2890]

I dont know about that grand cherokee, but mine has amazing throttle response. As soon as I hit the gas it pulls you back its the 4.7 V8 as well. Maybe that specific model wasnt maintained properly. Mine hjust hit 210k miles still going strong 👌

[@tmlstudioDJKR]

Those tires as well. I believe the OE wheels would give a better feel

[@njc2981]

Im gonna get my 04 jeep grand cherokee limited v8 tomorrow and it has 134k miles. Wish me luck. I can't find the v6 engine so i'll just get the v8.

[@FrameRot]

How is it now

[@gilbertojohnson6981]

2:12 Mike: You are incorect. Later on for this same generation, the OVERLAND came out with a few upgrades above the Limited version such as: adjustable pedals, tow hooks, rock sliders, skid plates, etc.

[@DrivenCompanion]

Thanks for your input.

[@shaunramos9878]

LET THE MAN LIVE GILBERTO

[@jw11432]

Overland didn't come out until 2002.

[@anastasiasierackicarter1945]

Gonna sound like a jerk here but to top of the line for the WJ is actual the Overland :-) Great video though

[@jw11432]

Close. The Overland wasn't introduced until 2002, so at the time (2000) Limited was the highest optioned trim.

[@FlyingV555]

My dad had one of these for 10 years and he says it was his favorite car. He replaced it with a Ford Expedition, and he just bought a 2020 Grand Cherokee, so now I’m looking for videos about this particular model.

[@DrivenCompanion]

I think he'll love his 2020 too. The new Grand Cherokees are without a doubt one of the nicest SUVs you can buy right now.

Hey Mike, which is the most comfortable SUV in terms of seats, suspension and engine, in your opinion?? Thanks

Are we talking high end or more mainstream?

6:24 You forgot to mention the 4.7 H.O. version which is a big upgrade from the normal 4.7 with more agressive cams, forged internals, etc.

Yes, the one I wish I had, please stop reminding me.

[@smokeyyy_da_tree]

I have the 1999 inline V6 4x4 with 146,399 no rust pure clean

[@VMAFIA]

I like everything except the taillights

[@user-bj6gl6on7g]

I disagree that they're higher quality than the zj , the ZJ has a nicer interior and just feels a bit more special, another great thing about the ZJ is the rear seats go completely flat and the lower bench pops out, so you get morre space... I don't know why all cars don't have this

[@eligreg99]

I wish they would’ve put a 4.0L in my Jeep Liberty instead of a 3.7L

[@Bpreppye]

You forgot to mention that the hole in the recirc button comes standard in all models 🤣🤣🤣

[@Firas_Patov]

Yes yes 😂😂

[@magopena2890]

Why does this always happen 😂

[@brushrescue1701]

What's that extra screen on the dash. I think it says Chrysler on it 🤷‍♂️🤔

[@PikaDamos]

For the second gen, that would be the gps nav that was optional for that model. In addition, there is a upgrade stock radio that you could have chose as well that had a screen on it too.

[@jeffazarva6549]

Can I find a Limited with the 4.0 engine.from factory. PLEASE help.ty

[@copleyplayz9833]

i’m not entirely sure if they were produced however you can always swap !
