« on: October 31, 2025, 08:24:19 PM »
95
158k
4.0 auto
mint interior, mint under hood, clean glass and body
came from TN a few years ago, relatively clean underneath
stock

made a deal on it, title should be here tomorrow. 


I fixed D30 LCA bracket, upper and lower arms on driver side, adjusted steering back.
got it driving straight and good after a guardrail jump / impact

maybe needs brakes and a muffler.
found a purple donar to see if i can grab a fender and driver door from on way to CT next weekend.

messaged Nick about it. he got a kick out of it.


pulled fender to bang out dents in it and driver door

found intermittent power windows working- found a post on jeep forum that stepped through diagnosis, found no ground at driver door switch.  found cut wire from door damage at hinge boot area, repaired.

touched up paint damage with the closest modern GM paint code i could find, not bad. 

finally looked though jeep.  interior is mint and original.  even has the spare and spare tire cover.  has weather techs, and tapes in center consol.  radio was swapped for a semi modern CD head unit.
