Makes too much noise. Some body damage and minor rust (see pics) typical of 12 yr old truck. Sunroof sealed shutIf steering stabilizer wears out the steering can shake badly. I have had no problems with this since installing the steering stabilizer but before installing this, the steering would shake badly. WJ’s are known for this "death wobble" Interior trim around sunroof is looseAC/heat can smell bad- hasn’t happened for a while.Starts and runs fine but has been sitting with little use for a year. (Fluids need to be topped off etc.)Interior is in overall great shape but driver door armrest has some cracking (pic) and driver seat bracket has some rust at carpet (pic) Truck is sold AS-IS with no warranty, guarantees, or safety certification. No work done on vehicle is guaranteed. It is a used car and has clearly identified good and bad points and many unknowns. The low reserve price reflects all of the above. The Blue book is over $5000. I have a low reserve as I have no time to work on the car and simply can’t keep it around any longer unregistered. This truck is best for someone who wants to fix it up. It's not ready to be a daily driver without a weekend or two of TLC. (top fluids, check steering stabilizer, switch rear shock bolts etc.) I've put the last 40k miles on it and absolutely love the truck- just no time for anymore projects. It gets a lot of attention because it looks like cross between a street-fighter and a heavy duty off-road rig. Payment details:Winner is required to pay $500 deposit via paypal within 48 hours of winning. Cashier's check or cash for remainder when picking up vehicle. Vehicle must be claimed within 7 days of auction close. Sorry but I don't have time to answer a ton of questions. I've tried to be as honest as possible about the good and bad points and provide a lot of pics. It's got a low reserve. It's a great project truck. It has issues but it also has great features. Sold as is.
