I found this over at one of the other forums I frequent and thought it was a good deal for those looking for a new Jeep. The mileage is VERY low and the Jeep itself seems decent too!


I figured I'd post this here just incase someone knows someone looking for a TJ at a good price.
Well I hate to get rid of my 2nd Jeep but it must go. It's a project that I was hoping to work on over the winter but with my relocation to North Carolina I just don't think it will happen. It is a 98 Sport with 24,697 miles 6cyl, 5 speed, AC, Hard Top w/ Wiper and defroster, gray cloth interior.
The Jeep has the following upgrades:
Trailmaster 4" Lift w/ SSV Shocks & Stabilizer
RE Heavy Duty Front Trac Bar
4.10 Gears 30/35 Combo
35" Super Swamper SSR's on Ultra Alm Wheels
2" Hitch
Front Tow Hooks
Fog Lights (from 2003 TJ)
Rubicon/ Sahara Flares
Tube Intake with K&N
Dynomax Cat Back w/ High Flow Cat
Mean Green Alternator
The exhaust, Cat, Trac Bar are all brand new. I just gave the jeep a full tune up including Cap, Rotor, Plugs, Plug Wires, PCV, Oil & Filter, Trans Fluid, Rear Fluid. I also cleaned the throttle body and air filter. This Jeep runs and drives like new. There are some cosmetic problems so I'm pricing the Jeep very reasonable. It has alot of little scratches here and there and the previous owner walked across the hood when he was stuck with it. It could use a new hood and a paint job if so desired to make it perfect. When it is clean and waxed it actually looks pretty good. KBB lists private parts value in fair condition which is the worst condition they have at $8100.00. I'm looking to get $6,500.00. I'm pretty firm on the price and I think it is real reasonable since with $500-$1000 worth of body work and paint it would be worth close to $10,000+.
Email at ABadJeeper@aol.com with any questions. The pictures below are the way it sits currently. I'm gonna try and wax it up this weekend and take some new pictures.

That is a nice looking TJ, especially for the money.

But what I noticed is that I could fit 35's fit a 3-4inch lift on my TJ.

35's + D35 rear = :s-redeemer:

it is a sport, so it most likely has a D44...

The 44 didn't become standard in Sports until either 00 or 01, I'm pretty sure it was 01. And it was only available with the 30" tire package at that.

I know Mark had to special order his 99 w\ the 44 because as stock, they came with 35's. My 99 is a 35.

Of course, it's not for discussion since right in the post it says "4.10 Gears 30/35 Combo".

my bad... hadn't noticed that. Still, it has been done. I am not about to visit the dreaded D35 debate. I just don't feel up to it.

Matt never had 37's, nor did he have a D-35 rear...it was a D-44 outta a TJ sport.

I had 35s on a 44 with Chromoly shafts and Spicer gears.

I'm nuts, not stupid.

Looks like there is a sale pending on the Jeep. I thought considering the price and the miles somone on here would have sucked this up!

It's not locked.

Not to be a smart-ass, but what does that have to do with anything?

I have a D35 with 31x10.50's and I've now blown the spiders out twice and spit a ring and pinion along with the pinion bearing. Technically the R&P went twice, but the second time was due to my mechanics FUBAR, so I won't count that.

And I'm not locked.

Then you have shitty luck. I stated about the locker cause thats usually when they break, not as often when its open.
