This is a project Jeep that was purchased from a salvage yard. It is a 2004 Jeep Wrangler Sport. This jeep was bought "totaled". Im suprised it was "totaled" as the frame was not bent, the engine, interior and everything was working fine. The damage was mostly to the body save the front axle. The front right fender was riped almost off and the windshield frame was bent. The damage looked much worse than it actually was. At the time of purchase the engine only had 25K miles, it now only has 29K. This is the second Jeep I have built, I have a blast building them and driving them.
DAMAGE:
- Roll bar bent
- Front right fender (the metal part, not just the plastic) was hanging off.
- Front bumper
- Hood latch broken, small dent in hood
- Front axle was destroyed
- Passenger front shock missing
- The soft top was ripped apart
Some of the parts needed to be replaced, a rubicon front axle was swapped in and Teraflex parts were used to replace the broken/missing parts of the suspension (already had Teraflex suspension lift). I got replacement fog lights, mirrors and hood latches to replace the damaged ones.
