Well I've got a lot of possibilities floating around in my head. Thinking about trading in the jeep on a good used truck. If I do that, then I need to go back to stock so that means I'd have some parts for sale. So to get a feeler out there, here is what I'm thinking of selling and at what price. I'd like to know if anyone is interested and throw out some suggestions on prices if I'm off. Remember, this is just a feeler for now (I'm looking at a used v8 ZJ today. If I buy the ZJ the JK has to go and the ZJ will be my new project. Thinking 35s or 38s, homebuilt long arms, and Ford D60/GM 14 bolt axles). I'm selling it to the wife as saving $$ (but really all the $$ I save would go into the new project
)
So what I'd think about selling:
1) Front & Rear axles w/4.88s gears $2400.00 (plus your stock D30/D44)
Fr rubicon D44 with custom truss and Johnny Joint UCA mount and teraflex C-gussets and 1/4 thick LCA mounts
Rr non-rubicon D44
2) TeralFlex rock sliders (trimmed 1.5" front & rear for large tire clearance) $250.00 plus your stock
side steps. You would need new hardware for sides, IIRC it's 5 bolts & nut-serts per side. These are well used.
3) Stainless Steel Brake lines for 3-4" lift, set of 4 - $50.00
4) Front stubby winch bumper $250.00
Mopar offroad bumper cut down to a stubby. HD winch mount.
5) Skid Row Engine/Trans skid $200.00 with all mounting hardware
well used but in very good condition
6) 3" lift $450.00
3" full traction HD springs
Rustys ADJ front LCAs w/flex joint, BDS Adj UCAs, and BDS Adj Rear UCAs
Front & Rear bumpstops
7) OR-Fab tire and jerry can carrier $300.00
8 ) Smitty Bilt XRC bumper & tire carrier $400.00
9) Optima yellow top $50.00
10) Blk soft top with tinted window $375.00 or trade in the soft top and sell a slightly damaged
hardtop with tinted windows and hot head headliner for $800 or so.
11) Trail Ready BEADLOCKS $900.00
These are 5 on 135mm wheels, but come with adapters to the 5 on 5" bolt pattern for JKs
These were bare aluminum that are painted hammered black. They'd come with about half a
can of Rustoleum hammered black paint for touch ups.
12) (4) 315/70r17 Firestone Destination MTs $600.00
Two are BRAND NEW & never mounted, the other two have about 40%-50% left
13) Terflex Monster front adj trackbar $150.00
14) Evolution Offroad High Steer kit $175.00
(draglink flip kit and axle side raised trackbar mount and raised swaybar endlink bracket)
I'm caught right now. Getting rough on the kits driving in the Jeep everywhere (sweaty backs and my 9 month old keeps getting heat rash which exacerbates his eczema
). Also, it would be nice to have extra room and not have to wrestle in the carseat everyday. My options right now are:
A) Buy a good used ZJ / XJ and sell off the JK parts and trade in the JK for a lower pmt on a good used truck.
B) Keep the JK and buy an OK used truck cash as a DD and pray that the truck doesnt break down
C) Keep the JK and spend the $$ I have on JK upgrades and make this entire thread pointless
decisions, decisions
So the point of the thread... as John Quinones would ask, "What would you do?"
