Bad @$$ stuff man. Good selling point is functional art, like salt n pepper holder or the solar lights. Maybe some windmills ,bird feeders, humming bird feeder, even a holder.

For sure I'll know more on Sat about the yota motor he was telling me it was a 2stroke or 4stroke not sure guy was old and can hardly understand when he talks.

Half your pics work.

Yeah can't beat a free jeep and truck full of parts. Well it cost me about 160miles in gas. So anyway, I have a chance to acquire a diesel motor but it's out of a Ford 7.3L.....yeah idk bout it still keeping an eye out for cummins 12 valve what's a decent price?Also I heard about a 4cylinder Toyota diesel not planning on putting it in my j4000truck, but is that rare motor?

Saw this same truck on CL, almost positive same truck but it was listed for 12k..

Well here's the specs I know so far 360 v8, automatic t400? Guessing he switched it,Dana 44,Dana 60, posi limitited slip all around.4 barrel edlebrock carb. camper special so upgrade suspension,8lug so I'm guessing1ton,with the 4set of front lights. This project will be on back burner since I started a house project,and have other projects going. I'm on the fence on what I want,I'd like a diesel work truck,but who knows. Hit me up with ideas.

Oh I forgot to mention I have to head back down with a trailer to pick up the original bed has few dings and spare tire carrier.

So since this is new to me I'm open for ideas I'm thinking diesel swap. Idk,won't be for awhile I spent my project money on my house so mostly planning and idea bouncing and some cleaning will be this trucks future.

Mj full of parts as well as the j4000

So here it is

My hunting ground is Craigslist an well here's my story,Been wanting and looking for the mighty jeep gladiator when I stumbled upon a ad that had a 1971 j4000 4x4 for 1,500.I was stoked thought wow killer price me and my pops can start a project and go halves,ad said motivated seller in my head I'm thinking 1k.So I called the ad and left a basic message,hey calling about your jeep have couple questions gimme a call back thanks. So I show my dad the ad and he said no,I was like what c'mon,still no he didn't want to stray from the mjs and xjs era of jeeps we have been accumulating these past years.I was bummed.trying to talk my dad into it the guy calls me.we talk on phone for a good 20-30mins, pops asking me to ask questions I already had planned asking. So towards the end I think I got my dad hooked,nope. I tell the guy hey I was thinkin I could get my dad to go halves with me but I can't and I don't want to insult you with a price he said shoot offer I said I could do like 700.He said sorry man he really wanted more for it,I said no biggie we bs'd for oil bit and wished him luck. This was month and half ago. That was End ......or so I thought. Got a call last week from the guy,he asked me hey you still want the truck I said yeah he said take it.I'm like what? He said yeah man if you want it come get it.I was shocked.he said yeah man out of everyone who called me your only guy who wasn't a douche, Everyone was trying to rip me off and low ball bad or flake which pissed him off. Then he told me he tried donating it to college but a tow would cost him and the tax right off he was trying to get wasn't gonna happen.I told him my dad out of town on vacation but I'll come down asap.set it up on Thursday but I get a call saying his work schedule got turn around so Saturday will work. Pops vacation was over and me and him drove my mj down hour an half to get it.

I do all the electrical. Mostly because if one ground is bad you spend more time and money fixing things that might not be broken.

I went through this couple days ago,I had to open a photobucket.com sign up then upload pics too there,then I linked the pics from there to here.

Ima just stay away from non bolt in.

So late 86 manches can fit 4.0L cool.question besides looking under the hood in person,how else can you determine its late 86.vin?

Must see pics. Not trying to be rude but I read your post with a German accent sorry...

If it was me I'd call the cops, yes officer he shot my truck and dented it and my brakes are all screwy now and my dana 44 underneath is acting up,no no that's not a 35 I swear and my roll bar is gone what......and I had a full tank of gas....oh noooo

Name it turbo turd.

Askm them if they will sell a whole one.

If that bed is made for comanches I'd keep it because I've never seen or heard them made for it. Make a trailer so you can swap beds when ever, seems really cool an a good base for some sort of camping setup.I'd buy it but your two states over.if anyone knows what utility bed is a good match to this hit me up.

I dig the utility bed do you have any info on it? Where are you located and how much for it?
