Congrats, that is a cool Jeep for a wicked price. A good fluid change is a good idea.

Re: ? about jeep
Hi John,
Looks like a good deal to me. The little puff of smoke at start up only is valve seals and they may be replaced without pulling the head. I looks like it was painted Midnight blue, like my Thunderbird it separated from the primer, bummer, but a cheap repaint by Maaco, stopped the pealing. You have an after market Holley carburetor, I thought the '90 YJ had Multiport Fuel Injection, that may be a huge problem, for which here in California, there are plenty of horror stories, in which the the seller was held responsible for several thousands of dollars.
