If you go to the Rubicon, get the TJ, not the JK. TJ jas the better axles, better turning radius, and the better engine.

I would love to keep the CJ (It's one of the cleanest around)...
BUT : F150 , EXPLORER , CJ , AND A RUBICON is FOUR vehicles; ONE TO MANY
I am about to talk myself out of this one due to the $17,500 price on a 2004 rube with 44,000 miles. OUCH...

- 83 CJ7 350 tbi, TH350, D300 twin sticked & clocked, narrowed Chief D44 Eaton Elocker & Moser shafts, Explorer 8.8 Detroit locker, 410's, RE 4.5" spring lift 1" body lift, 35" Claws, cage tied to frame, Corbeau baja seats, HD tie rod and draglink, u-bolts flipped, custom skid plate and sliders, Warn 9.5ti winch with Amsteel synthetic line
IMO the only real advantage is the cushie ride.
I don't see any advantage in the drivetrain, you can put lockers in the cj.

My better 1/2 likes the idea of a cush ride, and a/c, and cruise, and real heat, and c/d players, and automatic, and ETC! ETC!
BUT WHAT DOES SHE KNOW ANYWAY ?

You'll regreat selling a classic for a fad. They are to hard to come buy in good condition. They may need a little love but we all do and we all like a little love. Love your CJ and be proud to show her off. Put a little money in it and Keep it.
