    Pros:
    -new Radiator
    -new upper and lower hoses
    -new Serpentine Belt
    -new Waterpump
    -new thermostat
    -new right side Sidemark socket and bulbs
    -new air filter
    - I have a new replacement primed black Hood with the new clips.
    - I also have a new rear bumper end cap (driver side).
    - New radio

    Cons:
    Will not start.
    -Main gasket is blown
    - Exhaust leak in the manifold
    - Will need a new Skid plate for the gas tank sometime in the future.

    I've had this vehicle for about 4 years now and had always been reliable. Havnt had any major problems with it until recently. Was going to fix it up and sell it later, but I need something better on gas because of my work commute. This would be a great project car. The hood was a mistake on my part, forgot to clip the hood down before driving. No history of major accidents. This Jeep is perfect for offroading. The tires are in great shape. Would like to sell asap, serious buyers please, selling for $3500 or best offer. text or call (585)402-9101

    Welcome! Location, mileage will help your sale. Just curious....what's a main gasket (head) and who determined that? What issues led to the no start?
