Welcome aboard!

Check for rust behind the headlights and play in the wheel bearings and kindpins (search death wobble for more on this subject!) There is possible vaccum line issues which can disable the 4wd by not letting the forward hubs engage the main sign of this is the 4WD light flashing when 4wd is engaged

There is a buying guide on here somewhere!

Welcome.

Use Google to search, much better.

For rust search for "Jimny boot rust". Lots of threads on BJ with photos.
