more recent pic, have added fog lights on front but yet to wire them up to switch

Its with much regret I have to put my beloved Goldie up for sale. She has been a great first Jeep and Daily driver for me for 3+ years now.


Bought 3/23/13 with 118,xxx miles on her. Odometer sits at 159,XXX currently. for 41,000 miles she has always fired right up when I turn the key. The Heat blows hot and the air blows cold! power steering is smooth.


My reason for selling is I have bought a newer jeep with more bells and whistles and due to space I have to let one go.
(honestly ive gone back and forth on this - shes been a great ride and any time I've had to fall back on her due to the other jeep getting repairs done, I'm always reminded how smooth she drives)


Here is a quick list of repairs I've done on her since purchase.
Passenger front quarter replaced
New tie rod ends and steering stabilizer
Water pump, hoses and thermostat
Front brakes and rotors
Wheel hub/bearings
Front axle u joints
Front and rear driveshaft u joints
Interior LED light conversion for dash and interior
New Headlights
New shocks front and rear
New exhaust from header back to tail pipe cat and muffler also
(done by PO right before my purchase)
Wiper blades front and rear
Starter was replaced after purchase


As with any jeep there are things that need repaired.
The headliner has drooped a bit. I have an overhead console I rescued from the junk yard along with a sound bar I planned to install when I tackled the headliner issue. these can both go with her to her new home.


Minimal rust on body, undercarriage has some rust that I planned to address in the future.


Drivers door needs to be adjusted (just needs a spacer likely)


Transfer case may need a new chain. 4wd works but I have planned to change it. with selling, I haven't done it yet.


I will update thread with pictures and build sheet later when I can.


you can email me at alan.akers7@gmail.com if interested or respond to thread here. $2800 or best offer.


really wanting her to go to someone that will appreciate and take care of her. April 1st I'm putting an add on Craigslist for local sale. need to sell be end of April when roommate comes back and needs parking space back in the garage.
