Also invest in a stinger bumper if deer are a big problem.

 

Yeah, get a big one so you can hang your clothes from it as well.

 

get bigger tires, just run it over

 

Headlights are not cosmetic, nor is the cooling system. Dude, I do feel your pain - but if you list that thing as Fair condition you'll never sell it because people will arrive to look at it and just get angry.
However, all is not lost. It can run again with a bit of effort - and you do have a great excuse for a new front bumper with lots of beef

 

Yeah I am sure most of us have had offers on our jeeps. I have been offered 8000 for mine when I didnt want to sell but i said yeah to it and then when it came to talkin about it he didnt want to pay 8000. he didnt want to pay anything more then 2000. Just because someone offers 1000 doesnt always mean you will get that. just fix it up. your xj is far from fair condition.

 

I'm runnin 35s and there expensive enough you'd damn near need 44s to clear a deer lol

 

Well still in the process of fixing my "totaled" 91, it had the from end smashed from the side.

From what I seen happened to mine I can almost guarantee that the bulkhead is bent and pushed in beyond repair. It will need cut off and a donor one welded in. You could try beating it back into shape but it looks pretty pushed in.

I still say fix it, only if you have a welder and are prepared for some downtime of not having the jeep. The bolt on parts are easy, its all the stuff you find when you take off the fender header panel, etc that can be tricky.

 

I'm in converse, indiana. I still don't know if I'm selling, it's at the body shop waiting for an estimate, if you really wanna buy it I won't take the bullcrap offers the morons on here are offering.. I have an offer at 1200 right now, people are saying it will be in fair condition once fixed are idiots.. If I fix it it be in at least good condition

 

I won't sell it? I have an offer at 1200. I've showed him it already.

 

My friend is the one who offered 1000, I know he has the money, if he says 1000 he means 1000.

 

Guys, it seems that he's right.

Fair seems to be another word for totaled.

I'll give ya 800 bucks for it... and that's being gracious.

There's tons of wrecked XJ's all over the net for way less.

Good luck which ever way you go.

 

I know this.. I don't have the tools to fix this, I'm not an auto mechanic, just a guy that likes cars. That's why it was towed to a body shop, if it costs new to fix than its worth, than I'm selling.

 

I'll say no because I can already get more or it than that. Geez guys the motor and transmission and tires alone are worth more than you guys are offering.

 

Once it's fixed, sure.

Right now the engine and transmission aren't worth much of nothing considering they couldn't get you out of the Wal-Mart parking lot without running hot.

 

They're still worth the same to someone with a cherry picker and another xj. I mean if I sell it it's make more sense for the other person to look at it as a source of parts rather than something to fix.
