I have been looking at buying a TJ for a couple years now, but still am not super sure what to look for. I recently found one that seems perfect that I will put details in later this post. My biggest concern is that I would have to fly to pretty much the other side of the country for it, and am concerned I will waste time and money, but I also can't help but think it might be the perfect jeep at the perfect price point for me.
It is a 2002 Wrangler TJ sport, 4.0L/5 speed, 4x4, 104k miles.
4.5" Rubicon express lift w/ new coils, shocks/stabilizer, quick disconnects, adj track bars, adj control arms, Currie HD steering, rebuilt axles w/ 4.56's, Yukon 30 spline super 35 kit, F/R chromoly shafts, F/R lockers, warn different covers/skids. SYE kit, cv driveshafts, 5 brand new 35x12.50 Nittos on 17" fuel wheels. aftermarket bumpers, tow package w/ trailer lights, rock sliders, bola exhaust, stubby antenna, smoke tail lights/marker lights, led headlights/fog lights, LED 3rd brake light and reverse lights. Bluetooth color changing underflow lights, cut-out fender flares. tilt wheel, upgraded speakers/bluetooth stereo, new carpets, windshield and roll bar grab handles. Brand new tinted soft top, full hard doors, professional tint. Whole underside is spotless frame, tub mounts, floor pans...no rust(supposedly, I haven't had the chance to see it in person). Brand new plugs, newer battery, starter, radiator, hoses and crank sensor.
The guy selling it also recently replaced the transfer case due to it busting while he was driving it a couple days ago
It's listed at 12,000
Is this too good to be true, or should I take the risk to fly out and go look at it and hopefully buy it, or waste my time and money on flights there and back...
Thanks in advance for all your help!
