I helped my brother build this Jeep a few years back. It has hardly been driven since completion and he sold it to me last year when his 2012 Rubicon came home. I've enjoyed it but I work far too many hours (70+)to keep up on the maintenance a Jeep like this needs. It has a few leaks and quirks but is a very solid Jeep. I just recently finished lowering it because it was slightly taller than legal height. It does have a branded title, I believe it was a theft recovery but I can't be sure. There is
absolutely no rust on this body. I hate to sell this Jeep because I love it as much as 2 of my 3 kids, but my 2012 Rubicon came home yesterday.:greg:

Jeep needs:
Exhaust leak at Y-pipe/header
Cracked tail lights.
Rear springs have sagged.
Engine wiring is less than stellar-I would buy a new engine harness and clean up all the engine and chassis wiring, or maybe have Panos here on the board do it.
Body lift updated. (currently 1" pucks)

I was worried when I saw you post this but glad to hear about the new Rubi. Good luck with the sale. It's a great looking YJ.

My neighbor has been trying to get funds to buy this so I haven't been pushing the ads. It's time to get it going. I'll post more pictures later today.
