Well Built Jeepcherokee Classic on 2040-cars

built jeep cherokee $8,000 obo

 i've owned it for the last 7 years and its been great to me  as both a daily driver and weekend warrior. oil was changed every 3000 miles since around 50k when i bought it, 142xxx now, i'm only the 2nd owner. i hate to get rid of it but i'm way to tight on cash for the way life's hitting me and i can no longer afford to own two jeeps. mechanically she runs great, low miles for a 4.0l, practically every sensor has been replaced over the years. about a year ago the fuel pump/sending unit was replaced.  also about 6-9 months ago the cylinder head was replaced. 2000-2001 were notorious for cracking cylinder heads, it was replaced with a new "tully" casting head for a 2003 wrangler which is much heavier duty/desirable. work was done by a licensed mechanic. the jeep was recently tuned up with OEM spark plugs and a replaced ignition rail.

this jeep is very well built, its almost finished with the second stage of the build. it had a small lift and 33" back when i started planing for the build its at right now.

the stock axles have been replaced, the front: with a high pinion dana 30, its got a TnT fab. truss,TEN Factory chromoly shafts, eaton ECTED limited slip/ full time selectable locker, rock crusher differential cover,4:88 gear ratio and heavy duty over the knuckle steering. the rear: is an original xj dana 44, its been converted to disc brakes, has .5" u-bolt eliminators for spring perches, a detroit tru-track limited slip (very aggressive limited slip but much more "street-able" than a full case locker) it also has a rock crusher differential cover, and 4:88 gears. both axles were built with no brackets hanging below the axle tubes for ultra-high clearance. buying and building these axles (after paying for welding and gear/locker installation) cost me well over 6 grand alone, and they've only seen about 3,000 miles of daily driving and 1 off road trip where they performed awesome.

the suspension is a hybrid 5"-5.5" lift, the front has about an inch of lift built into the truss and 4.5" rubicon express coils, there are blown rubicon express mono tube shocks installed right now but i have brand new bilstein 5100 shocks that will be included in the purchase, it also has a Clayton's off road heavy duty 3 link long arm with rebuildable Johnny-joints, the rear is 4.5" rubicon express leaf springs and 1" JKS lift shackles, bilstein B6 shocks, there are also crown 6"+ extended break lines

the rear quarters/tail lights have JCR quarter armor and LED tail lights, the rear bumper/tire carrier is RigidCo and the front bumper is an ORFab that was cut down into a "stubby" bumper to allow clearence for the 35" tires

the tires/ wheels are 35x12.50 BFGoodrich Km2's mounted on 15"x8" black steel wheels they have had one off road trip on my other jeep (some small rock rash on the wheels from this one trip)and only driven on the road to get to the trail that once, these are practically still brand new, still have some of the little nub's from production left on them, these tires and wheels were over 2 grand when i bought them a little over a year ago

this jeep isn't perfect, it was used off road, carpets have been removed and replaced with bed liner, there are dents and scratches and some minor things that could use fixing, front end pulls right a little but it is in need of a front end alignment

right now the jeep is unregistered so test driving on  the road isn't much of an option except up and down my street

i have well over $25,000 "invested" in this jeep, obviously i never expect to get this back, i never planed on selling it, but i think for all the work done and parts put into it it is well worth the price im asking
