Vehicle Overview

I bought this Jeep to use as a daily driver. I have never taken it off-road. The previous owner did most of the work you CAN see other than:
*side steps
*Subwoofer
*Soft top
*Tires and wheels
*Swing gate spare tire carrier *Passenger side "OH S#!T" bar
All of the work I had done focused on electrical, mechanical, front-end, brake system and fuel system(Please see attached invoices). I have driven this Jeep back and forth from Missouri to Charleston, SC a couple of times without any issues. This Jeep looks good and drives great. It turns a lot of heads, especially when the top and doors are off. The radio sounds great, the A/C is cold and the seats are super comfortable. There is a lot of power behind the wheel and the 4-wheel drive works excellent(in the snow). This Jeep is a beast on the highways and has no problem keeping up with or staying ahead of traffic.
*Fuel injected 5.3L LS V8 conversion
*4l60E Automatic transmission.
*Power Steering
*Power Brakes
*Four wheel disc brake
*Vintage air - Cold A/C!
*SSV Works MRB3 Bluetooth radio
*Pioneer TS-WX010A 160W compact subwoofer
*4.11 gears
*G2 CM axles
*PSI Computer and Harness
*Dakota Digital Cruise control(inoperable)
*Lokar shifter
*Novak twin stick
*Dana 44 rear
*Suspension lift with Fox Shocks
*5 - 35x12.5x18 BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A K02 tires
*5 - 18" Matte black Fuel Vapor wheels
*XRC wireless winch w/ remote - 9.5K
*LED lights
*Corbeau front and back tumble seats
*Soft top with tinted windows
*Matching hard top(needs driver/passenger side glass replacement)
*Rugged Ridge spare tire carrier swing gate
*Side steps
*Custom carpet
*Fitted floor mats

Mechanical

This Jeep has been worked on mechanically and electrically extensively during the time that I have owned it. There are no leaks underneath and the engine sounds and runs strong. *After market radiator *New calipers *New brake pads *New brake lines throughout *New master cylinder *New brake booster *Full system flush *Rotors turned *New fuel pump relay *New fuel pump strainer *New fuel pressure regulator kit *New fuel tank sending unit w/ level sensor *Complete fuel system rewire(includes under dash) *New steering box *New drag link *New tie rods w/ HD kit *Engine compartment wiring re-routed and cleaned up

Exterior

Overall the Jeep looks great. There is some sun fading and clear coat peeling/cracking on the hood and under the windshield frame(see pics). There are rust spots visible through out the exterior(captured in photos). The spare tire swing gate needs a new L-bracket as it leans back a little bit. The soft top is in great condition. The hardtop is in fair condition and needs glass replacement. The hardtop is matching in color, but has sun fading, dings, dents and scratches. I bought the Jeep with the hardtop and added the soft top. I have the Pro-Comp back bumper that matches the front bumper. There are signs of daily use, some wear, a few scratches, small dings and surface rust. I have not done any work on the body as my main focus was to get the Jeep mechanically and electrically sound. I added the 5 - 35x12.5x18 BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A K02 tires and matte black fuel Vapor wheels. I also have 5 - Kumho Road Venture M/T tires(70-75% tread) mounted on 5 brand new Fuel Vapor wheels(same as what is on the Jeep now, but never mounted on the Jeep). This Jeep looks good, but could use some attention to the exterior. There is a suspension lift w/ FOX shocks. The underneath is clean and does not leak.

Interior

The interior shows signs of wear. The front seats are faded with a couple of tears in the driver side seat. The back tumble seat is in excellent condition. The dashboard has some light surface rust in(see pics). There is surface rust inside in various areas around the door and back tailgate(see pics). The door panels show signs of aging, fading and wear. The AM/FM radio is not equipped with an antenna wire(bluetooth is operable). The parking brake is not operable. There is a very nice MOMO steering wheel. I also added the Tuffy Heavy Metal locking console. The carpet is in good condition and the floor mats are fitted. *New Pioneer subwoofer *New cables to and from radio *Under dash wiring clean up *New wiper motor *New wiper switch *Horn repaired *New front seatbelts *New ignition wiring *Door and window repair
