kbb puts it under $1800 in your area. only good things on that jeep are the sliders and (supposed) 8.8
but that leaves the question of what gear ratio you're running?? fishy..
you could ask $2500 but a smart guy would offer $1300

seriously though what axles are you running. I thought explorers only came with 4.10's, 3.73's. did they come with 3.55's?

4.5" lift and a $70 jack for $7000?? no way in hell. they'd have to be a 97-01 running lockers and a quality suspension
only other places that ask 7k+ are car lots
