I've got 105,000 miles. Replaced the ball joints (recall), rotors and brakes twice, A/C compressor, water pump, tires twice, filters and fluids as needed on an '03 Sport. Original owner, how rare is that in this day and age?

yeah I think I do
but I wander what is going to happen when I start putting off road milage on a KJ with over 100k on it

Hate to assume but here goes,if it has been cared for through 100000m,off road use shouldn't be big deal,would guess cv's might be weak link. Got mine with 120000m,rode hard put up wet,now at 185000m she doesn't scare me.

About 186000 on my 2002 and 144000 on my 2003. Very regular maintenance on both. Both run like the day I bought them new. They have both towed my Ranger bass boat many miles with no problems at all. The 2002 is now going to go the the farm to replace my 77 International Scout for getting around the property. The 2003 will become the third vehicle and I'm buying a new Liberty to replace the 2002 at home.

My 2002 Sport has ~95,000 on it and I havent had to replace anything yet but brakes and the front driveshaft(boot cracked/ripped), I've only had it a little over a year and 12,000 miles though. The passenger window motor just went out about a week ago, and the passenger front wheel bearing is also on its way out, but other than that everything seems perfect.
