Jeeps for Sale?

I'm looking to get a used Jeep to drive back and forth to work, and take to the deer lease. Anyone know of any older models for sale that would be a good value?

Been looking myself. Craigslist and local area search for used Jeeps have brought up good looking Jeeps for me. I just can't decide what I want to do just yet
2 door? 4 door? straight 6 or new lower miles Jeep? Too many choices.

Posted on 2/14/12 at 10:36 am to Dolemite
Not sure abput everything, just know what i can see.
Straight 6 i think
Automatic
About 5" of lift
Coils in the front
Full tube roll cage
Winch
I guess 35's maybe 37's
Not sure about drivetrain mods. All done by sam's offroad. It was built to be a full blown rock crawler.

I dont have many positive things to say about the Jeep brand, but I'll give it a shot. The straight inline 6 is a hell of a motor that will most likely outlast the numerous other problems you will encounter (I have the V8). If money wasnt an issue, and I was buying a Wrangler, It would be a Rubicon 100%. Locked front and rear with twin Dana 44 (aluminum I believe) axles. As for 4 or 2 door, I like the look of the 2 door better, but would love to have the longer wheelbase of the 4 door or unlimited. You will find a lot more 4x4 Jeeps as you get out of the south because of the different terrain. Try sites like jeepforum.com and jeepsunlimited.com and search the classifieds. Hopefully I can build my own one day and do some wheeling out west, but for now I'll just have to drool over ones I see on the Internet.

Is his suspension a long arm kit or what? Who makes the suspension?
Posted on 2/14/12 at 10:47 am to PapaPogey
I dont know. Its made for rock crawling so im sure its whatever can flex the most.

If you are looking for a daily driver/camp jeep, I will assume by good value you mean <$10,000. You will have to go to the early 2000's in which case 4drs was not and option and the inline 6 is the only option outside of the 4 banger.
I would look for a 2000-2003 with minimal mods. You should be able to find that just driving around baton rouge looking at dealerships.

Man, I had a kick arse CJ 7 when in the 80's. This looks very close to the one I had. 304 V8 engine.

Do you want a Jeep or a Jeep CJ or Wrangler?
Its hard to be the value of a Jeep Cherokee XJ, if you are not dead set on on the CJ Wrangler styling.
