2008 Jeep Unlimited Rubicon in great condition. This has been a great Jeep. This is a third vehicle for us and we are trying to eliminate our debt. I am the second owner. We have mainly used it for traveling Utah's back country. As a "jeep guy", I have owned several jeeps. This has been my favorite one, right behind a classic CJ-7 I owned. This jeep drives very well. It's very comfortable at 75 mph with one hand on the wheel. No bump steer, no "death wobble". It's very predictable for a lifted jeep with bigger tires. This Jeep has spent a fair amount of time off roading. It has a few very minor dents around it that I would most likely have to point them out to you to see. No rust Just a good, clean, non-smoker jeep.
It has a 3.5 inch RE lift with Teraflex control arms and Bilstein shocks. The flex joints in the control arms were just rebuilt, greased and ready for a long life. It drives about as good as a lifted jeep can drive. I doubt you will find one that drives much better.
Other included items are: AEV Procal (computer programmer), evap can skid plate, winch, "trail mirrors" for when you take the doors off, safari top, rear tube doors, 35" BFG tires with around 80% tread, locker bypass switches to use the lockers in 2 wheel or 4 wheel high, hi-lift jack mounts on hood (jack is not included), Rhino lined front bumper and grill, so no rock chips, Bushwacker plastic fender flairs (pass side rear is dented in a bit), aftermarket transmission cooler installed, Synergy ball joints installed other spare parts if you want them.
Other Items: 3 part hard top, Infinity dvd/mp3 radio with subwoofer, power windows, power locks with remotes (includes 3 keys/remotes: I lost a set a few weeks ago and had a new key made. Then I found the lost set a few days ago.), perfect A/C and heat.
Fresh transmission service, Mobil synthetic in the engine. Well taken care of.
I would have no worries about driving this rig across the country.

Why Mopar won't release a factory lift kit for the new Jeep Cherokee
Thu, 24 Apr 2014The Jeep Cherokee Dakar concept showed off at the 2014 Easter Jeep Safari made a lot of online friends, even the Cherokee naysayers assenting that there's a monster Jeep underneath the Cherokee's skin if you're willing to go in and get it. But after reading Road & Track's write-up of what went into creating the Dakar, particularly its lift, you'll understand why you'll probably never see the components for it in the Jeep Performance Parts catalog.
The concept's press release mentions a "prototype Jeep Performance Parts lift kit, and additional suspension modifications." The short-story explanation is that the front struts on the standard Cherokee weren't engineered to accept any amount of lift, so the long story begins with the phrase, "an entirely new suspension." Head over to RT to read the details, and don't be afraid to ogle the Cherokee Dakar gallery and another awesome Jeep fancy that won't likely crawl over the hurdles imposed by production reality.
Jeep Cherokee faces on-sale delay
Sat, 23 Mar 2013A report in The Wall Street Journal looks at some of the obstacles to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee that go beyond its mootable yet "very contemporary" looks, almost all of them based on Fiat's financial position. Starting with that sheetmetal, in defense of it SRT president Ralph Gilles and Jeep design head Mark Allen said they wanted to "make sure the design still looks modern five years from now."
The WSJ piece doesn't cite longevity as a factor, instead saying that its features originated in a design for an Alfa Romeo, the transformation into a Jeep design meant allowing Chrysler get it to market more quickly and save "hundreds of millions of dollars" in engineering.
The need for Fiat to save money while it weathers the European situation has cut budgets for development, engineering and the pace of retooling the Toledo, Ohio plant to build the Cherokee. In a familiar case of snowballing at work, among the effects will be pushing back the Cherokee's volume sales date and delaying updates to some of Chrysler's other products.
SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building
Wed, 31 Oct 2012After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.
