This 1998 Jeep Wrangler Sport was acquired by the seller in 2025 and now has approximately 61,000 miles on the odometer. Since acquisition, the vehicle has undergone fluid services and received several updates, including the installation of a black Bestop removable soft top and five new tires.
Powered by a 4.0-liter inline-six engine producing 181 horsepower and 222 lb-ft of torque, this Wrangler is paired with a five-speed manual transmission and a Command-Trac dual-range transfer case. The transmission fluid was drained and filled as part of the recent maintenance.
Finished in striking Chili Pepper Red Pearl Coat over Mist Gray cloth interior, the Jeep features full metal doors, dual side mirrors, and a swing-out tailgate. The exterior also boasts 15″ creased five-spoke steel wheels fitted with 235/75 Goodyear Wrangler Trailrunner A/T tires. All five tires, including the full-size spare mounted on a swing-out rear carrier, were replaced in September 2025. Earlier this year, a two-stage paint correction was performed to enhance the vehicle’s finish.
Stopping power comes from front disc brakes and rear drum brakes. The Jeep originally came equipped with a Quadra-Coil multi-link suspension featuring live solid axles and power steering, providing a balanced off-road experience and maneuverability.
Inside, the cabin is appointed with high-back front bucket seats upholstered in Mist Gray cloth with matching door panels and carpets. Amenities include a fold-and-tumble rear seat, a roll bar for added safety, a mini-floor console with a cup holder, air conditioning, an AM/FM stereo, and a locking glovebox. The instrument cluster features a 100-mph speedometer, tachometer, and auxiliary gauges for fuel level, voltage, coolant temperature, and oil pressure. The digital odometer reads 61,000 miles—approximately 500 of which were added under current ownership.
Recent maintenance in 2025 included replacing the air filter, changing the oil, and the replacement of the clock spring and turn signal switch. Fluid services were performed on the transfer case and transmission in preparation for sale.
This TJ Wrangler is offered at no reserve and comes with the owner’s manual, service records, spare parts, and a clean California title in the seller’s name. The vehicle’s Carfax report is free of any accident or damage entries. Additionally, the Jeep successfully passed its most recent California Smog Check in July 2025.
This well-maintained and tastefully updated 1998 Jeep Wrangler Sport is ready to deliver classic Jeep driving enjoyment on and off the road.
