$6,800 Cherokee Sport Lifted

2000 Jeep Cherokee sport XJ $6,800

This was one of my projects that I’ve really enjoyed but regrettably am going to have to sell. Moving to FL and am not going to have the time or place to enjoy it so I must sell soon. I bought it with 110,000 miles on it and drove it stock for a while and then added the lift, transfer case, new axles, rims, and tires. It also has AC, Power everything, CD, etc and runs like a jeep! I will detail the build (preformed by a Mechanic) with prices and links to product home pages. (about 3k miles on everything new and it drives on and off road great)

1) Lift Kit Rubicon Express 5.5” Extreme-Duty Long Arm $2049.00

One of the best lift kits I’ve ever found, Each of the Rubicon suspension systems are designed to increase off road potential without sacrificing street handling or safety

2) RUBICON MONO-TUBE shocks $200

3) Transfer case slip yoke eliminator and CV driveshaft from tom woods

I tom woods best combo that will never break under the XJ’s power for $600

4) I did a Transfer case rebuild to toughen it up for $400

5) New Pro Comp XTreme Mud Terrain $2200

The best mud terrain on the market right now paired with new rims from pro comp and the lifetime replacement warranty from 4wheelparts.com

7) about $500 in extra upgrades

It took $6139 in parts (shipping and tax) plus about $1000 in labor because I knew some one who could do it for me to get this done

$6139 parts

$1500 labor

$6000 estimated blue book on 2000 XJ sport

$13,639 would be what you would have to pay to build this and you can buy it for $6,800

You do the math then give me a call at (931)797-1954 and come give it a test drive. Your going to like It! Meet me on my sales price and I’ll throw in a new still in the box 8,000 lbs winch.
