BLHTAZ Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 OK...I'll change my opinion on the pricing ;) Cheap (to me) = $700 - $900 Probably worth (to me) = $1300 - $1500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicofuentes0224 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Wow. Worth to me $2000 What you should pay? Check kelleybluebook.com,punch in all the numbers and options and offer him whatever the price for a person to person transaction on a vehicle in fair condition or lower.

HOrnbrod Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 I'm thinking of going to see him tomorrow with maybe $1200-$1500 in my pocket. All it needs is a paint job and maybe a rear bumper, but I think the existing can be straighhtened easy enough. Took a peek underneath today while taking the pics; it has a D44 (so most likely 3.07 gears) and 5-leaf rear springs, so it must have the towing package. I didn't know you could get that w. 2WD. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hermes542 Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 haven't opened up the diff, but you can definitely tell a difference from my other manche with an open rear diff. Plus the guy I bought it from was the original owner and custom ordered everything... also has factory rubber lining instead of carpet and cargo light among other things...

WahooSteeler Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 The LSD or Trac-Lok D44s should have a tag on the diff that warns to use fluid for a LSD only. you don't wanna swap out those Big Ton packs for some std's do ya? :brows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOrnbrod Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 Not yet JT. The man's been politickin' for a circuit court judge appointment down in Montgomery, according to his wife. Supposed to be home in a couple of weeks. If he gets it they'll have to move down there, and I'm pretty sure they won't take the Eliminator, so it might be good......
