Sold it for $1000. I had already parted out about $500 dollars worth of parts and i still have a few hundred dollars worth of parts in my garage. So when its all said and done im confident i will get about $2000 for the Jeep.

Could have made more if i kept it and parted it all out but to be honest it was an eye sore out front of my house, i already have about 6 cars in my driveway and i just wanted it gone.

Will definitely post more pictures of the other toys, i have many of them lol.

Yeah for $1000 he received quite a bit. Like i said i could have made more parting it out but i just wanted it out of my driveway and $1000 isnt bad.

He bought a 2000 XJ base model 2WD for $600. Only had like 60k miles and super clean cause its 2WD so it never went off road. He is swapping my drive line into his 2000 2WD to make it 4WD. He is swapping my door panels and power windows and locks into the 2WD to make it power instead of manual. Lastly he is swapping the motor into a 93 XJ Sport that he is flipping.

Okay guys, was able to finish up the new Jeep this weekend! I will have to post up pictures once i can tomorrow, its dark out right now. Cant explain how excited i am to finally be back in a Jeep.

Anyway needed some advise. I am currently running a Rough Country Adjustable Track bar and bracket. To be honest i dont really like it. The track bar slightly binds in the bracket, ill try and get a picture of this to show you. Also i want to get a track bar brace to help reinforce the frame upfront a bit. I havent had any luck finding a "universal brace" so i am looking for a "all in one" kit that includes the track bar bracket, adjustable track bar, and frame brace. Any suggestions out there? I was looking at the Synergy kits but dont really know much about them. I also now Rusty's makes one but have heard bad things about their track bars breaking. Any suggestions?

Also what do you guys think, contemplating buying a JCR Stage 3 Rear Bumper with tire carrier. Currently i am running my spare on my roof rack. But i have had this itch to buy a rear tire carrier. JCR is currently running 20% off which is awesome! Still though itd be a $850 dollar purchase. Maybe i should just buy sliders and save some cash. Suggestions?

Yeah im kinda there with you.

- Blocks rear window
- Blocks my new HK sticker
- Costs a pretty penny
- Already have a rear tire solution
- Have to open it everytime i want to access my cargo area

Too many negatives.

Plus i REALLY need to gear my Jeep and REALLY want to get some 4.56s. I also was considering buying some sliders from JCR instead since those are way more practical to off roading.
