Hmmm, not the one my boss traded for and I had to put a reman 2.8l in
a few years ago. You don't see many with the 2.8l, because they are a
bit(how shall I say this?)underpowered.

I don't know why nobody but me has seen these, but I actually know
where 2 of these Cherokee's with the 2.8l are sitting as I type. Heck
they even put the 4 cylinder in them, but you won't see many of those
either.

87 was the last year for the 2.8 in North America.
The 88 came with the 4.0.
