She has been wanting a Unlimited 4 door for some time, but with 2 car payments already, I just was not wanting to tie into another one. Anyways my grandpa decided it was time to part ways with his 41k mile 05 Unlimited. Its a one owner garage kept. He never used the 4x4 nor did he take the top or doors off. Dealer installed 3" body lift, chrome crap, and kc lights. First mod will be different wheels. Anyways she doesn't know I bought it or even looked at it. She gets off work at 5. I told her we would meet her for dinner. We will be rolling it. Anyways here it is. Pics were before they cleaned their crap out of it.

I approve of this post and the style of delivery.

 

Looks like a good vehicle.

Had an 04 Columbia Edition. One of the worst driving vehicles I have ever been in.

Sold it after 2 years.

 

The factory shocks were crap. He put some monroe shocks on it about a month ago.

 

Looks really good and you cant beat the milage

 

Yeah it is super low mile. I lucked out. Right place at the right time.

 

Thats a pretty clean tj. I never was a fan of tubular bumpers tho. If it was mine i would be putting a rear bumper with a swing out tire carrier and a stubby front bumper. I actually kinda like the rims. They would be better black tho

 

Yeah it was modded by my 73 year old grandpa so you know. I dunno what we are going to do just yet. Def a bigger lift, Nitto Tires, I want at least 35s on it. The bumpers are either going or being powdercoated.

 

Jeep looks very nice, but get rid of the happy face light covers

 

I like the bumpers just powder coat them and a light bar. Nice jeep!

 

Pretty nice ! After the wheels do something with the chrome bumpers. I love jeeps, owned a couple Xjs myself.

What motor does it have?

 

4.0 it runs great. The wife loved it. Totally shocked.

 

I like it. Only kind of jeep i would want. besides maybe the srt

 

Nice was about to ask if she liked it

 

that thing isnt even broken in yet! It will run to 200k no problem.

 

If ur gonna go bigger tires then you should do a gear swap too. My yj is on 33s with 4.10s and it is such a slug. Im supposed to have 4.88s to compensate but im just gonna wait until i swap axles. I doubt my dana 35 is gonna last much longer

 

Yeah it will definitely be getting 4.56s. I dunno what route she is gonna wanna do.

 

Hey hey nice deal dude nothin beats a granpas car!

 

Love it, looks great! Also, matching spare tire with matching aftermarket wheel, good move!

 

Yeah I just need to buy 1 pro comp tire for it. It still has the original MT tire that it had on it when he bought it. We are about to head out to a car swap meet and look for goodies.

 

Since ur gonna get a new lift go with bds. They have a lifetime warranty on every part. They are expensive tho. I paid well over a grand for mine. Stay as far away from rough country as you can. Their shocks blow out very quickly and their leafs sag after a few months

 

Nice looking jeep. Hopefully you'll be getting a few mouth hugs for it

 

I had a 2 door JKR with 4.10s and 40s. The 3.6 motor it has is tons more powerful than a 4.0 though.

2013 JK Rubicon. RK 2.5" coils (3.25" actul measured lift) 40" nitto trail grapplers and a lot of cutting to clear them at full bump with tiny bumpstops. Would go almost anywhere you pointed it. never got it stuck in 4wd.

 

That is a nice Jeep!

 

I was sad when we traded it in for a white 4 door JKU. The JKU is stock right now and will remain that way for a while.
