AaronClarsen Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/cto/1462965615.html i was thinking about taking the fender flares off and putting them on my truck, along with the winch bumper, and maybe some lift parts for mine, and then sell it again... but i'm not a 2.8 fan... what do you guys think?

Eagle Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 2.8L? He says it's a 2.5L -- that's the 4-cyinder. If it's really an '87 it can't be a 2.8L. Looks like a pile of junk to me. I'd pay $400 or $500 for it if it runs well. At $1800 I'd have to wonder what kind of dope he's been smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Automan2164 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Its a 2.5L, not a 2.8L, but it looks like a hillbilly special. I wouldn't pay more than $500. Rob L. edit: Eagle beat me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Looks like an amaturish attempt at a flip sale for maximus profit to me............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1990 Pioneer 4x4 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 hmmm, looks a bit ruff for $1,800... If he really needs too sell it by Sat., and you really want it, offer 1/3 of what he's asking. :popcorn: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfpdm Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I think that ya'll are being a little harsh on this. Yes $1800 is a little high but you would only give $500? It appears to be a rust free body. How many would pay $500 alone for a rust free body regardless of drive train? Forget the truck and say you were shopping for a winch. How much would you pay for a used 12000lb winch? $300 maybe? New it was what $600-700. How bout a winch bumper. $150-300 maybe? Buy a set of used 33" tires with good thread for around $200. Set of axles geared with 4.10's. $300 Bushwacker flares run around $380 new so $150 used would be fair if they're not damaged. Running used drive train is at least $200. Not saying add all that up and there's your price but if you parted it out, that's what you could expect to pull from it. I'd say if you got it for around $1000, you could use what you wanted off of it, swap all the aftermarket parts back to stock, then resale it as a running MJ with minor issue for $600-800. Just my opinion. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallisek Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I think 800-1k would be reasonable. I'd be very careful about the rear though. If one of those welds breaks the gears are toast. Would be a nice project though if it is rust free. Get rid of the monster lift, lower to around 3, get some 31s or 32s, new spider gears...and some TLC.

I couldn't imagine waiting around for another '91-'92 with the desired drivetrain and wiring harness. Rob L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
