Up for grabs is my Rubicon LJ - this is one of the cleaner TJ/LJ I think you'll find this side of the Mississippi. Jeep made very few manual Rubicon LJ's, and even fewer in red.

This Jeep has been my daily - it rides really smoothly, even in the 65-80mph range, between the longer wheelbase, Bilstein's, and Antirock. No rocking or shaking at all. I have off roaded once since having it - the last owner only took it on trails a few times. It does absolutely great off road, as you'd expect, but has been kept mostly on the street its whole life.

It has no rust, clutch feels great, no issues, starts up strong and immediately each time, and has some good comfort upgrades. It's been meticulously cared for - I have most of the maintenance documentation from the previous 2 owners. Soft top is in good shape - just replaced the back panel. Email me if you have any questions, or come drive it if you're in the area!

Good:
  • Goodrich AT's with less than 3k miles on them, and warranty through Discount Tire that will stay with the car
  • Upgraded Pioneer radio with Apple Carplay and audio mic
  • Bilstein 5100's, with less than 3k miles
  • they ride extremely smooth
  • Rubber mats used throughout Jeep, including cargo area
  • Currie Antirock
  • E9000 Winch
  • No dents - a few scratches you would expect on a 15 year old car
  • Tube rock slider steps - have original Rubicon guards I'll include too
  • Have original booklet/package
  • 1.25" body lift

Less than Good:
  • Winch controller is missing
  • Fog light switch inside cab needs replaced - currently have the relay pulled
  • Sticky lifter that always goes away in the first 5 min or so after a cold start

Are those the Mopar Rock Rails that bolt into the factory Rubicon holes? Are you interested in selling them separately?
