Description: I bought this in 2019 with plans to upgrade it for mild off-roading and overlanding, and also keep it mild enough to handle well on the street. Spent $20,000 in upgrades and repairs. Nearly all work was done at the highly-reputable off-roading center Axleboy Offroad in O’Fallon Missouri. I have receipts. Highlights of upgrades are listed below. These are top-of-the-line upgrades, professionally installed. It’s the usual story… I had all the work done and the Jeep is ready but it just sits in the driveway. I’m listing this Jeep for sale at what I believe to be a fair price considering all the work that’s been done. Runs and drives good. Very clean. Has recent safety and emissions inspections in July 2024. Current synthetic oil change in July 2024. Overall, it is in really good shape compared to other Jeeps of this age. It has a 3-1/2” lift with high-quality components. Heavy duty bumpers front and back that are fitted with true recovery points. Heavy duty 12,000 pound winch is mounted on the front bumper. Heavy-duty skid plates installed underneath to protect the gas tank, transfer case, engine and transmission. Heavy duty rock-slider bars to protect the rocker panels. Exhaust is replaced and tucked high for ground clearance. Larger tires with a tread that is just right for mild off-roading and also driving on the street. Swing-out spare tire carrier mounted to the rear bumper. New aluminum performance radiator.

But this Jeep is in better shape than most of this age. o Rear window wiper does not work.o Auto pre-sets don’t always work correctly on the side mirrors. When using the key-fob to unlock, the mirrors don’t always auto-adjust to the same place. This is apparently a common problem with older Jeep/Chrysler products.o Driver side mirror is blurry and auto-dim fluid is starting to leak out.o Console warning indicator - "Rear Lamp Failure" shows-up on center console but all lights are working. This is apparently a common experience.o Speedometer is off by about 5mph. It consistently reads approximately 5mph faster than actual vehicle speed. Example: when actual vehicle speed is 60mph, the speedometer will read ~65mph.o There is some rust underneath the vehicle (it is a Jeep after all), but the frame is sound.
