60th anniversary in showroom condition. Not surprised at all. Average everyday XJs list for $8k+ at dealerships around here. Some over $12k on the window.

If I were to buy that jeep it would get a 2" ome lift and 30" bfg all terrains on those nice rims it has. It would never be offroaded. It's too nice.

That would look good. Its got a ding or two but other than that its pretty much mint. And the 60th Anniversary edition adds to it.

Is the D35 really that much of a POS? Junk yards have been picked clean in my area, so a D44 is pretty much out of the question and I don't have the time for an 8.8 swap.

It's a turd but for street driving 33s will be fine on one. An 8.8 swap takes a weekend. Just weld o new spring perched and shock mounts and bolt it in.
