Vehicle Detail

The Jeep has treated me very well, but I needed something with better gas mileage and really don't have much of a need for it. A few things about the Jeep:191,xxx miles Rear wheel driveIts the four door SE model with the 4.0L l6 engine. Automatic transmission. Shifts great and has more power than you would expect.Manuel locks and windows. It was well maintained(never missed an oil change or tune up, however it is reaching a transmission flush which has turned on the check engine light) The Jeep is black but the paint has started to fade, I decided to take this and run. Instead of repainting it I badged the rear windows with a few zombie decals(which could easily be removed) and added a blood splatter bed sheet as the interior roof lining. Has a basic am/fm, cd stereo unit.There are a couple small issues:The turn signals cams need to be replaced(the turn signals do not shut off automatically) The cruise control does not work.I am told that both of these things could be fixed by replacing the clock spring(I know that they price at about $60 I have just been unwilling to invest the time.As with most of the Jeeps from this era the catalytic converter heat shield rattles on cold starts. (I have been told that these can be removed pretty easily. Lastly, there is a crack in the bottom of the windshield( it passed regulations in Missouri, so I never bothered to have it replaced) Overall the Jeep is in great condition and with a little care it could turn into a great vehicle or a fun project.On May-11-13 at 05:06:42 PDT, seller added the following information: The Jeep has treated me very well, but I needed something with better gas mileage and really don't have much of a need for it.

There have been a couple things that have been brought to my attention, the vehicle stays at my moms house, and I asked her to drive it for the day and let me know how it drove, she did tell me that the check engine light came on, I have not checked the light yet, and she said there was a rattle from the exhaust, which I assume is the heatsheild which is famous for coming loose and making a rattling noise.Lastly, there is a crack in the bottom of the windshield( it passed regulations in Missouri, so I never bothered to have it replaced) Overall the Jeep is in great condition and with a little care it could turn into a great vehicle or a fun project.
