    Weighing value of Cruiser after worst case scenario

    New to threads... hopefully I'm doing this right after reading the guide... So I have a 98 LC with 268k miles on it (no lockers). I've reached the point where I go ahead and do regular maintenance on it adding cost to the vehicle and need to get "kinda" practical against a newer non LC...
