Looking for advice on an 05 LJ. see here: http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/ctd/1284623880.html I keep seeing posts about how cheap TJ's can be had but this is as cheap as I have seen around here for an LJ. What should I really offer? |

What are they asking? It looks like it was well taken care of. Go to Edmonds.com. I've seen a 06 Rubicon LJ with about 30000 miles and a hard top for about 18000$. I should have got it but I still want a jk rubicon. You should check out new ones the are cheeper than some used ones I've seen!

Sticker is at 15.8k seems to be about the norm for the Unlimited from what I have seen. |

Wow, how much more expensive than KJ's were they new? Either a lot or they resale for a much higher value. my 05 kj renegade was 9k in january with 42,000 mi and sometimes I think that was a little more than it had to be. If I was in the 15+ market I'd be working on a new one and finding a "clunker" to exchange... |

05 limited KJ's with low miles are running 13k-14k around here. Those 2004-2006 Unlimited Wranglers are a rare breed too so that might be another reason for their resale prices. |

All wranglers hold their value great and like you said LJ's are going to be a tough find. Most people who have them and know what they are, are going to start keeping them. If you could get it for 14 or 145 that would be a good deal. Then take out that D30 and put in a D44 and your set. |

Rider I'm dizzy I just noticed you name from your rockrail post, looks good LJ's just look good lifted, look a little funny stock. Do you still have D30 in front and what gear are you still running before 4.56 swap. Drybones look what you can look forward to. |

had it checked out by a Jeeper mechanic, all is well except a leaky power steering pressure line which the dealer will be fixing before he gets my cash. Wife gave the go ahead so now it's just finding a number the we and the dealer can live with. Hopefully it will be in the driveway on Saturday! |

d30 in front d44 in back - it has 3/73's in it now. its not TOO bad but once the corner guards are added it may be a little much. a brick with a tent tied to its arse isnt gonna be the fastest vehicle on the bock anyway LOL |
