1997 Jeep wrangler 4.0 5-speed, 4x4, also has air conditioning and power steering which many Wranglers did not come with. Jeep has spent most of its life in Georgia and Tennessee. I drove it up here to michigan and it has only spent 1 winter here. I'm moving back home and I have 2 vehicles and do not have a second driver so I must sell it. Mechanically its in great shape. Regular oil changes with recipes to verifiy. Had the clutch replaced about a year ago, newer soft top. Full size doors. New power steering box, U-joints. Radiator flush earlier this year. Has synthetic oil in it right now. The body has a few dings on the drivers side from when a driver brushed up against the jeep in a snow storm when driving up to Michigan. You could bang it out a little if you wanted but the door shuts fine and its a jeep so I never really bothered to try to fix it. I forgot to add, the only thing this Jeep might need in the near future is some new Wheel bearings. I had the U-joints, and brakes changed and it drives fine but sometimes you hear a slight squeak from the front end, and the only thing that has not been replaced is the wheel bearings and the Ball joints, but ball joints don't make any squealing. I was going to replace these myself but then I had to move. Wheel bearings are cheap and can be done by yourself if you mechanically inclined or for cheap at a shop. Again you don't need to replace these right now as the jeep drives fine, but this is the only thing I can think of that you might have to replace or repair in the near future. The original color is the rare Magenta purple. I had a paint shop put on some Plastidip Tan color and its still holding up well even after a year. You could peel off the plastidip if you wanted or put another plastidip color ontop as its easy to apply with just a spray paint can. The full size doors are a green color under the plastidip as they came from another jeep. Has a 2" lift with 31" MTR kevlar tires. The lift was professionally installed and comes with Bilstien shocks up front and Skyjacker hydro in the rear. The tires alone cost $1000. They are still in very good condition. Very reliable, starts up every time, does not leak any fluids. Lots of fun to drive with the doors and top off. First bid $3000 with NO RESERVE!! I originally paid $7000 for this jeep 2 years ago and have spent about $2000 in maintenance and repairs, highest bidder gets it. clean title in hand. Please message with any questions, if you want to come take a look at it. Jeep wranglers are always in demand and they continue to have one of the highest resale values of any vehicle on the road. Of all the vehicles I have owned this is the only one that people have randomly offered to buy it from me!Vehicle is also for sale locally, so auction may end to sell to a locally buyer. Thanks!!On Aug-02-14 at 09:19:59 PDT, seller added the following information: Also forgot to mention the Spark plugs, wires, and distributor cap were all replaced about a 6 months ago along with the Motor mounts and transmission mount. There was not anything wrong with the motor and transmission I just wanted to replace them to make the engine run super smooth which is does. Also, this Jeep wrangler has ABS which is super rare in these TJ wranglers. This is very useful for the snow. Please message me with any questions. Test drives available. Thanks!
