I haven't actually seen it myself, but there's rumor, I strongly believe, of a jeep graveyard out here called AMC salvage.. junkyard full of jeeps. There's also a lot of other junk yards out here too. Trails are everywhere out here, as well. Bring the xj out!

Dont get your hopes up, they do have about 8 mostly stripped xjs but they have a ton of used parts on hand ripped off the jeeps out in their lot.

They have a bunch of older jeep tubs and parts for the older style wranglers.

Rotella T5 or T6 with a Wix filter.

If auto trans, Dex/Merc ATF.

Coolant: whatever.

Going no doors full exo ( hunter offroad fabbing as we speak) after bad slam/ twisted top end of unibody. Have 3 good doors with tinted windows, 1 with. Slight dent. Both rears have holes where bushwakers were attached. Rear hatch complete, tinted, everything working. Both rear side windows tinted. And possibly a k&n CIA ( think I may have to do a cowl with the new high clearance fenders) color of body parts is tan. Anyone local have interest in any of these things? And can I get some opinions on what a fair price would be? Tia
