This is for all you Craigslist guys who don't know about Search Tempest. This site combines all of Craigslist listings by zip code, item you are looking for, and how many miles out. Way easier than than checking per city. I search Craigslist like this. Hope this helps you guys!

I snagged a complete soft top off a 2012 for $200. Other than that there doesn't seem to be too much around here...or I'm just looking at all the wrong times.

I got my Dobermutt security system off of craigslist. Never found anything else useful for the Jeep on there.

Nothing but quacks on CL. So very tough for me SELLING stuff there. Wouldn't dare buy anything there.

I got a set of Rubi rails from a seller on Craigslist. Thankfully, he was normal-ish and was asking what felt like a fair price ($75, taken off a factory-new vehicle).

Over half my mods came off of this forum.

6 RK control arms
RK 3.5" springs
Bilstiene shocks
Bump stops
OBA
Front track bar
Trek top
GEAR seatcovers
PJ rails
Front skid

Not mention the parts I've out grown and resold.
Fox shocks
Leveling kit
35" BFG tires
I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff.
