I've decided it's time to get rid of the Jeep. It has been on the hardest trails from JV to Colorado, including Utah, and Las Cruces. It is NOT ready to run as I was planning on another rebuild but I've run out of motivation. I'll sell as a complete project or individual parts. Many are band new, some are used and never installed, and some have been tested in the rig for some time. Here's the specs and prices:

87 XJ Narrowed 10" in the front and 18" rear. Triangulated front and rear 4 links, subframed, caged. 16 gal fuel cell. 5 point harnesses. Has spare fenders, header panel and unfinished narrowed hood. Here's how it currently sits:

Just out of curiosity, what wouldbe the price for you to slap the axles back in it and throw all the rest of the parts in the back? A total package deal with the rig as a roller basically.
 
It would take a some work to make it a roller. The axles would need tabs, trusses, and spring/ shock mounts. The front needs ball joints and wheel studs. I sold the old axles to fund this portion of the build and these are bare. I can price out the additional parts needed and get you a total if it's a viable option.

-Jon
 
I got you, I didnt realise these weren't the axles for it. As I said, I was just curious.
 
I don't know the mileage on the transmission. I bought it from FireLt. for $200 this spring and never installed it. The fluid looks good. I paid over $350 for the shifter, so buy the shifter and get a free tranny :). I'll sell the transmission alone for what I paid for it. Thanks

Damn Jon...hate to see it go!

SO much want with the stuff ya have there! :D

$750 for the full hyrdo system is a damn good deal...paid over twice that for mine! If you're willing to let the hydro hoses go by themselves...I'd definitely be interested since I have that exact same setup and need mine for the buggy!

Wish ya had that AW4 cooler up sooner, would have snagged that from you instead of piecing together mine.

Just out of curiosity...what would you want for just the Racelines?

Yeah, the steering wasn't cheap, but I still think it was one of the best mods I made. The hoses were fairly affordable. I had them made at a hydraulic shop in Commerce City. I'll try to look em up if you're interested.

I'm asking $1300 for just the wheels, $2100 for the tires, or buy both and save money :)

Do the heims have bungs or missalignment stuff?

I only have the heims. Ruffstuff has about the best prices for the bungs and spacers.

I've had a few questions about the chassis. It's been used and abused and will need some TLC to be ready. The price would depend on what is included (seats, harnesses, fuel cell, links, bumpers, in cab winch wiring...) It needs the new header panel narrowed and installed, new fenders and the sectioned hood finished (I have everything to make the front nice again :) ). It'd probably be better to see it in person, but I'll gladly send pics to anyone serious. Just a ballpark price would be $750 stripped, but I'm negotiable.

Stop by! I haven't been home much lately, but if the Dodge is in the driveway I'm around. I'll be in and out this week and weekend.

still have the atlas?
Click to expand...
Yup. :). Lots of tire kickers, but no cash yet.

I also have a complete OBA set up with Sanden compressor, pressure switch, in cab guage and line.
$50

I'm going to start pulling the accessories off of the engine soon, but it's currently complete if anyone is interested in the engine and would like to hear it run.
