jimoshel Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 !986 MJ, 2.8, 5sp. 168,XXX, runs great. Fella wanted $250 for it. After I pointed out it's obvious defects he took $200. Defects being the linkage for the rear brake proportioning valve missing. No radio and a rust hole the size of a marble under the clutch pedal. Also got an extra set of tires and wheels, 2 grills, headlight bezels, dashboard bezels and 2, 5 gallon buckets of extra pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Automan2164 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Jim, while I respect you, I have a certain hate for you with things like this. I mean cheap, is one thing, but rust free on top of that!? I need to move out of the rust belt. :fs1: Because this is what a $150 MJ looks like by me: :ack: Congratulations brother.

jimoshel Posted December 24, 2010 Author Share Posted December 24, 2010 Just got thru going over it and a 20 mile test drive. Runs great. Peppy little sucker. Got headers and dual exh. Looks like a 2and a half inch lift. Spacer in front, shackles in back. 31X 10.50X15 tires. 4.10 gears, 4wd works. Looks like every bushing on it was replaced. They're all red teflon, plastic, and match the spacers. New shocks. Got a coolant leak. Gotta check that out. Husky receiver. Looks original made for MJ. Not a universal or modified. At 75mph the steering was a little loose but OK up to then. I just may have me a new DD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
