Brought this up from Georgia last year (Georgia vehicle since new). No rust issues typical of northern vehicles. Frame and body is clean...has NOT been touched up, i believe original paint, "what you see is what you get".
4 cylinder, 5 speed manual transmission Basic, simple, fun Jeep.
Runs and drives well, registered and using daily now that roads are clean (not driven in salt). Clutch feels good: no slippage. T-case shifts easily. Steering and brakes feel good.
New battery (Feb '17)
New soft top (4/2/17)
Newer factory style seats front and rear
Have decent used carpet (needs install)
Hood dented
Fender flairs contact tires on large bumps
No 5th gear (fairly common with ax5 trans; retainer lets loose. Still plenty drivable...just no 5th gear. Cheap fix without removing trans...just drop t-case and remove back of trans: see youtube).
Slight grind when shifting once warmed up
Windshield cracked (not in drivers view).
Radio not working (needs rewire?)
31x10.5r15 tires have great tread but starting to dry-rot.
This is a clean rust free jeep...a rarity up here in the northeast. Fun toy as-is or great rust free basis for a build up. Selling to focus (time AND $) on other projects.
