ive got a 95 and have had to rebuild the transmission once but im up to 103k miles- other than that and the clutch and radiator (thats from muddin), i havent had any problems other than that - my a/c worked great until it started stripping my belt

but i had to replace the belt to bypass the air conditioner - but using the a/c with the four banger sucks up the horses.
air conditioning + four banger = three banger
