Did anyone really think I would quit after 12?

!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.

It's an ability you must be gifted with from birth. It cannot be learned, or explained.

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.

Many many like that here too Rob at scrap prices. See them all the time while riding around on the bike. I just don't collect them - no room. Yep, you gotta move..........

Jim, i totally like that truck - even with the v6. whats in it for a rear end? and is there a lift at all ? - kinda looks like it in the pic - and the tires look like 30s or 31s.

[jimoshel]

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.
