I would say yes because of all the parts you get for it add over the $1000 you spend for, if its a second Jeep.

You'll have to spend another grand on tires very soon.

Sounds like a lot of work. Could be a nice trail rig.

Maybe ARB locker. There is alot of work that goes into being that high if you want it to be road worthy. Tires, wheels, and whatever suspension work might be worth 1000. Id ask about miles.

Looks like a short arm to me. Can't tell, but it looks like there might be blocks in the rear and the shackle angle sucks.

I'm in Rochester.


I'm not buying it.

I was thinking it would make a good donor rig for whomever is interested. Someone can probably talk them down as well. It's been posted on CL forever. The tires are shot, sure... But from what I can see, well over $1,000 worth in parts.

I would try to talk him down to $800 and use for parts.

That thing probably wouldn't last a day on CL over here.
