I agree, my timeline does make it difficult. However, I also am not too picky about color, transmission, or anything like that. I just want something that’s been well taken care of. I have color preferences but they’re not deal breakers. Black is definitely the color I wanted the least but if...

I'm on the East Coast! It's not passable for certain because of the front fender setup & tires. Unfortunately because it's a custom paint job I can't just grab some OEM fenders and slap them on to pass, you know? I'm going Wednesday to look at a bone stock rust free LJ with the premium package...

I haven't gone to look because I determined it will NOT pass Ontario safety inspection. If I was staying in the US, I would've already bought this. Ugh.

It's the 4.0 and everything else. Mine is a high mileage 2.5L automatic. It's got 3.73 gears. I need it to be my daily, and I am moving in the next month and a half. Time is of the essence. The amount I'd have to invest in mine... I'd rather just grab a clean example and take good care of it.

I'm gonna be going out to look at it. He's three and a half hours away. Assuming it's as clean as it looks, would it be worth it? Of course if it's rotten I wouldn't even throw an offer, but if it is truly as clean as it looks...

I am planning on heading out to see this TJ after a bit of negotiation. So far, the owner is willing to take $9000 cash + the trade of my TJ. Mine is an 01 2.5L automatic with a cracked frame and rotted body mount on the tub. It's the Patriot Blue one I also posted here. He is willing to let me...

I have a borescope I will be bringing with me

You guys are all great. After years of lurking and finally making an account and getting all this feedback – I’m gonna have to hang out on here more often. I appreciate all the feedback. You all make valid points. I am looking down south as well, but it’s almost like most people know what they...

You’re a lucky guy, that’s for sure.

Found this 04 Rocky Mountain edition, 163k miles on the chassis, motor replaced at 120k with a 35k mile one. Full Bilstein coilover suspension. Needs tires. Spent its life in far south NJ, now in NY. Mechanically sound. Owner asking $5500, would probably take $4500. Dana 44 with drums, Tuffy...

I have, the selection is even slimmer and condition is worse on average. I have about a month or two to purchase a vehicle otherwise I have to push off my move. I am heart set on a TJ because I want to move everything from mine to the one I buy & sell the rest to recoup the money. Mine is a 2.5L...

With my budget of $8k there’s no way, although that is clean

That’s a fair point about the transmission. I’m looking through the Carfax right now, it doesn’t say anything about replacing a transmission. It does however have extensive service records otherwise, the one owner treated it as if it was his first born, it seems. It’s got tons of maintenance...

Yeah, it’s frustrating especially considering there’s certainly a markup. Given the condition and the facts, what would you pay for something like that? Would you trust it as a daily?

Where did you look to find yours? I have a pretty strict budget of $8,000 and I'm trying to get my hands on a clean Rubicon while living deep in the rust belt. I guess travel isn't out of the question but that will certainly cut into my budget. I am moving to Canada in two months, and am selling...

It's possible. Unfortunately being where I am location wise, this 06 is a very clean example. I am basically between the 06 and the 04. I don't see it being worth getting a lesser spec, at this point. There is also an LJ for sale near me with a hard top, but has had extensive frame repair done &...

If I had a bigger wallet, I'd say yes. Unfortunately I am on a budget and looking for a new daily. I am moving to Canada and will be purpose building this TJ for the snow and light trails.

That's a valid point. I'll attach some photos of the 06.

It spent it's entire life in Maryland. Owner drove up north to trade it in at this small dealership. The Carfax reports all repairs and maintenance done since 2004 up until it's last service just before the current mileage. It's incredibly thorough and all there.
