[QUOTE="NJ-RUBICON"]I'm looking to sell my baby but really don't want to. I need to sell because it is way to expensive to maintain. I'm having alot of problems with it repair wise. What I need help with is how much is it worth and do you think it's worth getting rid of It's an 09 unlimited rubicon with about 50k miles. It has a 3 in full traction lift with 35x12.50x17 Mickey Thompson Baja claws. Warn front and rear rock crawler bumpers. An aev snorkel and custom cut flairs. Ok bad parts. All 5 rims are bent And the front end need repair. The total damage will cost about 2k. Also I hydro locked it so it has a new short block So how much is it worth

I've been doing all sorts of research these past few years before my recent purchase of my 13 so I may ve able to provide a few insights as far as what I have seen in the market. It looks like you wheel it pretty hard. Do you own it outright? Is it a salvage title due to the hydrolock? Any frame damage?

I owe only a few payments and it should be mine in the next few months. No frame damage and I don't think it's a salvage tire but ill have to double check

It also depends on what party of the country you are in. jeeps on the coast are worth about 20% more

Tough call. I would lean to keeping it if it is almost paid off. Fresh engine and all, it could last you a good long time. (Maybe beat it a little lighter)

Pay it off. Then decide.
When it's paid off and just sitting there for free, it's easier to apply that payment to your maint/mod costs, and you may be able to pick up a deal on a good dd, and this can become your "beater" that you have fun in.

Looks like you have been bitten by the wheelin bug and do some serious off road activity, that being said is the reason all your repair cost, hard core rigs should not be counted on as a daily driver. If you shed it guarantee in a few months time you will be jonesing to be wheelin. I would pay it off, keep it as a toy and buy a Dailey driver.
