Looking to sell my JK but have been out of the game a while and would like to get an idea of what to realistically ask for given the mod's it has. Figure I can get an honest answer here. Where would the appropriate place to post this be? Was going to do the Billboard but I don't have a asking price yet.

Thanks,
Dan

The time has come. Was saving the Jeep to use with my Son when he was old enough but another kid + 2 unsuitable cars + possibly a new house means it's time to let go. I have not been active here for several years and don't know the market, especially with modified Jeeps. Hoping some of you can give me a realistic street value/listing value for private sale.

There is a minor dent in the Right Rear quarter panel where some idiot (me) left the tire unlatched while pulling out of the driveway. Not huge but noticeable I was either going to throw armor over it or get it pulled.

I also have factory X bumper somewhere, ~30k miles on it if I had to guess?


I appreciate any help or insight ya'll may be able to give.

You should really find out the value of an unmodified vehicle similar to yours (miles, location, year) and go from there. While it may look cool and you've got some money into it, you shouldn't expect much return on the mods. You may be better off removing them and asking a realistic number- but the market may vary where you are. You may luck up and find the young kid that wants to have that exact vehicle.

Your best options would be to go on autotrader.com and cars.com, and look for 2009 2 door Sport with similar features as yours and see where their asking prices are, then add $2-$3K for low mileage if you find any in your mileage range. Don't plan on getting any return on investment for the mods and consider you may have to actually have to reduce your asking price for the mods, Then further subtract $2-$3K for slapping that JKO sticker on it but add $2-$3K if you put a JK Forum sticker on it instead.

Unfortunately agree about mods. You're not going to get the value you think they are worth. Lift, wheels/tires, bumpers, winches.....when selling private or trading in, it's very difficult to recapture the value in those things.
