Hey guys,
I am new to posting on the forum but have read you guys for a long time. Thanks for all the good information. I would have never known the term screaming monkeys without you guys!
I purchased the 2006 jeep below a couple of years ago with 25000 original miles on it. It was bought new by a fellow in Gadsden Alabama with the intention to pull it behind his rv. Unfortunately he got sick and that never happened. It was garage kept and used sparingly. The second picture shows it as I purchased it ( with my baby, love my restored GW) with a couple of mods like the headlights. The photo below shows it as it sits today, with rims and tires off a 14 Sahara. It now has 33 thousand miles registered plus around 4 thousand more pulled behind my rv.
I have a fifteen year old son and plan to let him drive this, but it rides pretty bad with the thirty two inch tires. I just put 2 inch spacers in when we put the tires on and the ride quality suffered greatly.
I am trying to decide between putting in a quality lift to help the highway ride, it sees very little off roading. Or selling it and getting him something easier to drive.
1. Will the old man emu light kit restore the ride quality to factory?
2. What do you guys think it’s worth? It’s automatic with no issues so far. 33k miles. Totally clean car fax. In north Alabama. No rust at all. It truly looks brand new. Hard and soft top are in good shape. The tachometer acts up sporadically but no other issues. I paid just under 19 when I bought it with 25 k. I think I have something pretty unique here with such a low mileage 06 model. What do you guys think?
