I saw this thinking the seller added an extra zero on accident, no. He was serious, this is what the seller said “Goodbye, an aftermarket or the original equipment and you’ll pay more than that”.

Finally joined the club!

Hi friends! I’ve wanted a Wrangler since I was a kid, and after many years of waiting, I’m elated to finally have it. I stumbled on the right deal this week and was fortunate enough to be able to grab it. Looking forward to making some memories in this and being part of the community!

Need advice on selling a build

Unfortunately might be time for me to get rid of my wrangler! For background, 2015 JKU Sahara that I bought in 2017 with around 24,000mi on it. Bone stock until 2021 when I finally did my build & got it running 38s. Totaled by a negligent driver in 2023, owner retained, rebuilt it & still daily drive it today! Part of the rebuilt was a new motor, found out today (thankfully under warranty) that it’ll likely be on motor #3. Which can definitely be a good thing, but just can’t justify having it as a daily & wouldn’t be the best financial decision to keep it at this time. Sucks, but is what it is.

Anyway, background aside, I’ll start by saying I’m 1000% aware you don’t get your value back in parts when selling a modified wrangler… dealt with it when fighting insurance when it was totaled. So if I do sell it once the new engine is in, my number will be completely reasonable & will take into account its accident history, nature of its modification, etc.
. I know best bet for selling a built wrangler is through a private sale, but I’m curious about anyone’s experience selling a very modified wrangler. Where you advertised, your experiences, etc. I’d appreciate anyone’s 2¢ on this, as this is my first wrangler, first time doing a build, actually would be my first time selling a vehicle that runs lol. Thank in advance. Photo of the jeep because I love it!

Edit: just realizing I left out a very critical detail. CLEAN TITLE. Through insurance, they totaled it on their end & it didn’t cross my state’s legal threshold so essentially totaled by their policy but not legally.

Meet Rosie...

I've wanted a Jeep since the first time I road in my uncle's without a top or doors around 35 years ago, and I'm finally in a position in life to own one. I got the last 2025 on the lot back in December. She's a JLU Sport S with the V6.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a mesh top that won't break the bank? Preferably one that I can either leave in place while putting the freedom panels or hard top back on, or is at least easy to get on and off.

Project Jeep in full effect!

Hi friends,

I recently paid off my 2018 Jk (his name is Tank ☺️) and now is the time to really get all the mods I want. I’m calling it Project Jeep. I’m wondering if y’all can give me some good recommendations on body kit modifications like steel fender flares, bumpers, wench kits, lift with suspension replacement, etc.

If you can guide me in the right direction I would love that. Thank you in advance for your help friends.

For reference we live in Southern California. Also we def need some Jeep friends to kick it with. Feel free to message me.

Jeep Traveling BEGINS!

Decided it’s time. I called my pops and said why don’t we start a project together… he has shared many memories of his times modifying cars/trucks growing up as a kid with his dad so I figured why don’t we start one! He was all about it. Move excited than I was. We got to work immediately.

We removed the back seats. Built a little DIY platform to flatten the entire area. Cut the cargo storage tub out, added brackets to the wood and installed it back to continue to act as a rear storage compartment.

We are beginning to carpet it today. So far so good, (he hasn’t gotten pissed yet haha) regardless time is limited. Start the project with your pops.

More pics to come. Not sure what it’s going to turn out to be but we started! Just found this group today.
Posting out of SC, if I see you I’ll duck you!!
Much love to the jeep fam, 2020 Jeep Wrangler JL

What is considered a degraded 4xe battery?

Took my jeep in for the battery recall inspection, they shared this report with a 61% battery health marked as passing. I feel very uneasy knowing it’s already 61% within 5 years and also the mixed messages from the dealer. Anyone else on the same boat or has had it replaced at a similar condition?

Anyone else have a spouse that hates your jeep!!! Or just me

I bought this last year. In occasionally, we’ll take the doors on the roof off the Kids love it. I just found out that my wife absolutely hates it.

First Time Jeep? 2018 Jeep Wrangler Sport S Sport 2 Door

Hey guys, non Jeep owner here - but always wanted one. Was looking through Carvana and this Jeep is speaking to me. I can already see myself using it to go more freely about the beach (in South Texas about 25mins from the coast). Is this year/model good? Does price look reasonable at 97k miles? Any word on highway driving experience? My M-F commute to work is about 24mi of highway, 60-75mph average. Jeep is also manual/stick shift.

Most everything I see online is positive about this one, and KBB lists the price as fair - but that’s all I have to go off of so far.

For reference, I’ve been driving a stick shift 2016 Mazda6 since 2018. Any input is appreciated.

Death Wobble ?

I have a 2022 JLU, bought it with 41k miles two years ago and now have 50k miles, never any issues, runs great. On a recent trip I went over rail road tracks at about 35 mph and got a major wobble, I slowed to about 20 mph and it went away. Later in the same drive on an interstate while going 75 went over an overpass and the seam in the road caused the wobble, slowed to 10 mph it stopped then did the same thing an hour later. I stopped, turned around and drove 4 hours on the highway going 70 mph and had no further issues.

Took it to a jeep specialty shop that all the local jeeps go to for death wobble, three techs looked at it and all said the front end is as tight as a new jeep. Then took it to a tire store and had all tires road force balanced, one tire was a quarter once off ( very minor)

Frustrated as I’d prefer to have found a problem so I know it’s fixed, now I don’t know if I can trust it on highway driving.
