Details

This custom-built 2000 Jeep Wrangler Sport has been given a new life with a number of performance and off-road modifications that enhance its capability and street presence. It s powered by a modified 4.0L inline-6 cylinder engine driven by a 5-speed manual transmission. CarFax indicates that this vehicle spent most of its life in the West with multiple owners who accumulated 226,895 miles over this Jeep s 23+ years. Behind new body armor, wheel arches, and side steps that also function as reinforced rocker panels, it has its original green paint and hard doors. It s the recipient of Smittybilt XRC bumpers, a new tan Bestop soft top, a suspension lift, and 17 Fuel RS2 wheels wrapped in mud-terrain tires. Among its mechanical upgrades, it was a test car for a new Legends Jeeps Turbo kit that boosts power to 248HP and 310 lb-ft of torque at 7 lbs of boost for the turbo. Paired with an MBRP Cat-Back exhaust system, it sounds great. With the full list of recent upgrades below and fluid replacement, this ready-to-off-road, modified Wrangler is located in Georgia.

The third-party photos and inspection show a clean vehicle that has been well-maintained, received extensive modifications, and is ready to tackle any obstacle in its way. With the exception of the repainted hood, its original green paint has some wear consistent with its age and use. The black body armor is just a year old and provides additional off-road protection. The paint shows minor scratching and wear around the door handles. Inside, the Jeep is clean, and protected by Rough Country seat covers that are in good condition. Line-X insulation and new carpets were recently installed. The original vinyl trim shows some wear consistent with the age of the vehicle. Mechanically, the owner and inspection confirm that the vehicle runs and operates as designed. The sale includes one set of keys.

This Jeep Wrangler is being sold through a CLASSIC.COM Pro and is located in Milton, GA.

About the model

The Wrangler TJ was in production until 2006 and was replaced by the Jeep Wrangler JK.
