2006 Jeep Wrangler, heavily modified, will consider Ford trades

The Jeep is nice, but I'm ready to go fast again. That means selling the Jeep to make room for a Raptor. If you have a Raptor or another Ford trade, I'm willing to talk.

For Sale
2006 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon
$40,000​

One owner since new. Always garaged and only has about 16,000 miles on it. Custom built to go anywhere and come back in one piece. 4.0L engine, automatic transmission, 37” tires w/ full-size spare, beadlock wheels, 1-ton axles w/ air lockers, full skidplates, air compressor, winch, and much more! Total build cost including the new Jeep was nearly $68,000. All of the heavy modifications were done by a professional shop in Michigan. I have the original window sticker and receipts for most of the parts. More pictures of this Jeep can be seen here. This Jeep is titled in Michigan but is currently with me in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico (the hard top and rear cargo rack are still in Michigan). We can talk about delivery options.

This Jeep will go nearly anywhere off road and its road manners are better than stock (I drove it the 4,000 miles from Michigan to Cabo). There are some light scuffs here and there in the paint, but no real scratches and no body damage. The armor, axles, and lower control arms have a few nicks from rocks. It's been used for the purpose I designed it for, but only I drive it, and it has never been abused.

Nicee Jeep! That's quite a list of mods - nicely done.

Those Kilby products might be "collector's items" as I understand Brad Kilby closed his company.

Good luck with your sale

Thanks MagicMtnDan! I had to try the Jeep thing once in my life, and a Jeep isn't much fun stock. First I've heard of Kilby shutting down. Too bad if that's the case, they make good stuff.

It's an awesome Jeep. Hope you find a buyer.

definitely a good looking jeep, nicely done on the build,

good luck with the sale

Very very nice build. Best of luck with the sale!

Thanks for the compliments guys! I built this Jeep for purely personal reasons, so it shouldn't matter whether anyone else appreciates it, but I will admit that it's feels good regardless.

Nicely done Jeep. You didnt cut one corner, but I think your going to have a hard time getting someone out of a Raptor for it.
Wish I had the resources to buy it- it would look great on a trailer behind my Raptor- Ready for anything- the best of both worlds!!

Thanks NvGuy. I suspect the same thing, but I was spending time here anyway and figured maybe someone here would have another Ford they'd be willing to trade with. Any Ford vehicle will be more desirable to my dealer than this Jeep. I thought about keeping it also, but can't justify the investment in a toy that I'm getting bored with.

I suspect it can be flat-towed behind another vehicle instead of putting it on a trailer.

If your Jeep was a four door (J/K) I'd be very tempted. Even though I like them and think yours is really well put together, there's so little room in the two door Jeeps that I personally couldn't consider one.
