I’m selling my Stone White 2006 Jeep Unlimited Rubicon (LJ) with 6-speed manual, Rock-Trac NV2410R 4:1 Low Range transfer case, factory hardtop, khaki interior, upgraded factory option 7-speaker stereo system, and dealer installed Mopar tow hitch.
Also included is a NEW (still in the shipping box) Gobi Ranger rack system (Gobi Part #GJTJUR) with a driver’s side ladder and roof cross-bars as well. [Rack is for sale separately as well.]
No major issues, no death wobble, and is in excellent shape, particularly for an 18 year old vehicle. No accidents, clean title in-hand.
Vehicle is driven intermittently so mileage is subject to change, and has approximately 102,000 miles as of listing. Adult driven, never abused, only some light off-roading/forest roads. These Jeeps are rare to begin with and even more difficult to find in stock condition with most people accessorizing Jeeps so often. For the 2006 year there were only 7,094 Unlimited Rubicon, of those only 912 white, and only 3,383 had a manual transmission!
The Jeep was ordered with a soft top (now gone) and a previous owner added the Jeep hardtop. I have a custom made wiring pigtail for it that uses the factory connectors if the new owner cared to get the wiper and defroster going. The hardtop has a small bit of paint cracking at the left rear corner. The driver’s door also has some minor paint damage from bird dropping that was not cleaned off before a previous owner prevented damage to the paint.
I’m selling due to an injury that has landed me in a wheelchair. The LJ is too hard for me to get my chair in and out of. I had big big plans (as you can see from the parts and maintenance lists included with this listing) to keep this one for a long time but, sadly, it must find a new home now thanks to my injuries. (NOTE: The rear seat, seatbelts, and floor hardware are out to accommodate my wheelchair; new owner can reinstall in 30 mins., easily).
I will include maintenance documentation from previous owners and me, as well as the original factory sales brochure, VHS safety video and several delivery books from the original owner. You’ll find the Jeep has had regular and appropriate maintenance using only high quality components and lubricants.
Issues:
· A slight rear main seal leak, as is so often the case with the 4.0 motor, but a Fel-Pro RMS kit is included with the sale should the new owner want to install.
· The windshield washer fluid pump will not run. I purchased a new wiper control stalk for the steering column as part of the troubleshooting, and it will be included with the sale for the new owner to install. (Along with a new turn signal/cruise control/headlight stalk.)
· Intermittently the differential locker instrument cluster lights flash in error while engaged. After exhaustive troubleshooting and a lucky moment, the issue turned out to be the ignition switch actuator pin assembly on the steering column. The ignition key normally presses in the actuator pin telling the instrument cluster/PCM the key is present, but wear has apparently allowed the (plastic) pin to shorten and the key does not always press firmly enough to keep the circuit active.) All required replacement parts are included for the new owner. Rest assured, the locker pumps all run fine, achieve proper pressure without issue, the system does not leak, and the lockers do fully engage. The Jeep is an absolute mountain goat!
Recent work in the last seven months includes:
· Full paint clay, polish, and Adam’s Ceramic paint coating (hardtop too!)
· Valve cover gasket and grommets
· PCV grommet
· Front upper control arms (Moog)
· Front lower control arms (Moog)
· Front track bar (Moog)
· BFG KO2 tires as of December 2023

· Bosch Icon wipers
· A clear IR window film from 3M professionally applied to block heat while allowing light in at the doors.
· New seal at the tailgate, and both seals for hardtop liftgate glass (Mopar & Crown)
· Savvy Offroad 241 Transfer Case Cable Shifter Kit (very nice quality, see photos)
· Custom 3D printed PETG cabin air filter, cowl mount installation with Bosch cabin air filter
· All Upstream & Downstream O2 sensors (NGK/NTK)
· Fresh oil & filter change (Amsoil)
· New engine air filter
· New cabin air filter (in 3D printed mount within cowl!)
· Reconditioned/recertified rear differential locker air pump
· Please refer to the maintenance documentation for further details regarding history.
