My time for adulting over Jeeping. 2012 Wrangler for sale in Denver
Posted: Sun Oct 06, 2019 7:54 pm
Asking elsewhere for $25000 obo. I am certainly very flexible on the price and will entertain reasonable offers.
For sale is my built up 2012 Jeep Wrangler. I am only selling because I need money for a house down payment.
All recall work has been completed, including the Takata airbag replacement so this Jeep won't kill you.
This is no mall crawler. It's a Jeep that will get you to the trails, over the trails, and back home again. It's taken me to nearly a dozen different states and I've run all kinds of trails. It hasn't been abused, but it hasn't been babied either. I built it up before I took it off road so that it would last for a very long time. I will hate to see it go but I have to do the adult thing right now.
The biggest improvement is the 4 speed Atlas transfer case. It makes off roading with a manual transmission bearable. I usually run it in 4.3:1 low range around the trails and shift in the 11.7 combo low range when I want to slow crawl an obstacle. There isn't much that can defeat this mountain goat. It has no trouble keeping up with Rubicons running the same size tires.
I have gone ahead with most of the 60,000 mile service. Or have done so over the last 10,000 miles. All of the fluids are fresh. The transfer case and differentials having several thousand miles since the last change. It has always gotten synthetic oil with a Wix filter at each change.
Of course, there are a few issues with a 7 year old Jeep. It's on it's second windshield but as anyone who drives a Wrangler knows, that's to be expected. There are a couple of small rock dings in the current windshield but nothing bad enough to need replacing yet. The soft top is showing its age but it still keeps the water out of the Jeep when it rains. Before you ask, no, there is no hard top with this Jeep. There are a few cosmetic issues with the doors. They still open and close perfectly and seal out the water no problem. They just have a couple of dings on them. That happens when you take them off and drop one on your foot. Don't ask.
