A vicious cycle of doing, undoing, and re-doing!

With existing family obligations, devoting time to a hobby isn't in my foreseeable future. Rather than have the Jeep sit in the garage, it's time to step away from Jeeps. I do realize where the price is here, but my first attempt will be to sell everything together. As it sits now, here's what's the Jeep looks like:

- 112K easy miles (never been wheeled)
- Automatic, with transmission temp gauge
- Cruise control
- Compass mirror with homelink
- Full hard doors
- Factory hardtop, with working harness for rear wiper/washer
- Alpine stereo, Iphone or android compatible
- Backup camera
- MORyde tailgate HD hinges
- LED headlights and tail lights
- LED interior lights, dash and cabin lighting
- Fog lights
- Bartact seatcovers
- Stock 231 transfer case
- Dana 44 front axle (Rubicon) with 5.38 gears, factory locker (with new Mopar locker actuator), Barnett front diff cover, and chromoly shafts
- Dana 44 rear axle with 5.38 gears, Ox air locker, disc bakes, and chromoly shafts
- ARB compressor for the OX locker and tire inflation
- New Brakes all around
- New, Mopar, cooling system
- New Spicer u-joints (all)
- New Spicer Ball Joints
- 3" Currie springs
- 1.25" Savvy BL and MML
- Savvy short arms
- Savvy Front Bumper
- Savvy steering box skid
- Savvy rocker guards
- Savvy tailgate armor
- Genright aluminum rear corner panels, with 4" flares
- Warn winch
- Next Venture high clearance bumper, with frame reinforcements
- Swayloc
- Currie steering, with BMB tie-rod
- Currie Trackbars
- JL 33" tires and wheels
- and more stuff I've forgotten

I'm not looking to piece parts, so, if sold at the asking price, the buyers gets the following parts to install:

- Savvy gas tank skid
- Savvy under armor, with engine skid
- 241OR transfer case (very low miles and in great shape)
- Rubicrawler (new in box)
- PSC steering upgrade, with cooler and cylinder assist
- Setrab transmission cooler
- Genright front fenders and inner fender
- Half doors, paint matched
- Soft top
- And other stuff I can't think about now

Yes, the price appears high at first glance. However, do the math and you'll see this is a fantastic deal. Also, it's probably one of the cleanest Jeeps you'll come across. As said above, I'm not looking to separate parts. I'm in no hurry and don't need to sell. My preference is to purge and move on to other things life has waiting for me. If it doesn't sell, I'll reassess and proceed from there. To the best of my knowledge, I've sorted out any issues and the Jeep drives, and rides, better than new.

In full disclosure, the only thing remaining is to buy driveshafts. After the swap to the front dana 44, and knowing I was planning to put in a 24OR, I didn't buy them. This was simply because everything needed to be installed for a correct measurement, and to ensure the right size joints were installed. The Jeep is driveable now, with the rear shaft in, it just doesn't have 4-wheel drive. If someone wants to have 4-wheel drive, the stock, rebuilt, front shaft could be shortened. I just didn't do it because it would be wasting money.

I'd agree that it's alot to ask for. However, there are some quality parts there and your paint marking of every nut, bolt, and "full" notation on diff covers tells me you're anal about everything you do... Similar to my style and the right buyer would appreciate this. If I could borrow Ginger Billy's Benjamin tree, I'd be driving down 95 right now.

What I didn't say was if someone buys this, they're going to need a truck to haul off the parts that I didn't outline. I'm literally getting rid of everything TJ/LJ related. As much as I love this platform, it just doesn't work for my needs. FWIW, the paint marking is born out of necessity to quickly and easily keep an eye on anything out of the ordinary!
 
Hate to see this man! Someone is gonna get a heck of jeep with a hell of a lot of great parts included. Wish I could add it to the fleet!

If someone buys this I will be interested in making a deal for the 241 and/or the Rubicrawler if wanted. 😉

Rich, I'm really sad to see that you are getting out of Jeeps all together. Its' truly been a pleasure and I'm bummed we never got to wheel together. Good luck in your future endeavors!

Man I have been missing the jeep and all the people here. I had planned on getting another in a year or so. The lj I had was based on this lessons from you and this lj. If I was in a different position I would be picking this up. Thanks for all the knowledge and I certainly hope you enjoy the next chapter!
