2000 XJ Overland Build
 

Hi All - I'm putting up my overland-designed XJ for someone to take across the finish line and enjoy. Standard story of guy who has jeep, then has a kid and buys a house, therefore a project must be sold :-(. I've owned it for 5-6 years now and have been building it up as I started getting into overlanding. My build link is below for the entire write up. The build link currently does not show the dirtbound offroad steel fenders, Boostwerks Engineering ultimate steering brace, fixed roof rust or my completed front axle swap with 1 ton steering. Asking $8k (does not include RTT). I have over $25,000 in parts/labor with receipts from legit shops in the area that can vouch for the work.. All documentation will go along with the jeep.

The bad:
Front e-locker is installed, but needs to be wired to a switch
Roof rack needs to be repainted one day
Herculiner exterior has some parts that is not perfect anymore
Sway bar brackets need to be redone. After the front axle swap with one ton steering, the drag link hits the bracket
Driveline angle needs to be fixed after the front axle swap. Jeep has some highway vibration because of it
Hood latch stopped working. Just purchased Autofab hood latches to replace entire system (in progress)

I will post pictures of interior tomorrow when I can get some new photos in daylight.
