New guy to STL area

[donthelegend]

Shoot me a PM if you need some help wrenching. Not sure whereabouts in STL you're at but I'm in Affton.

 

[besthaticouldo]

I'm in Creve Coeur, but I wouldn't mind driving a bit for some help.

 

[besthaticouldo]

I'm going to look at this Jeep as soon as I can get a ride out there.

Did you pass on that 99 for $1500? Sounded like a decent deal.

I didn't, I've sent them a couple emails and nothing.

NO! I hope he still has it!

Green one sold.

I finally got a hold of that 99 for 1500 seller, going to look at it tonight. Looks like it needs a clock spring by the sounds of it. Horn doesn't work and ABS light is on.

 

[besthaticouldo]

So, I'm gonna go look at this one.

Needs front end alignment
The horn isn't currently working
Airbag light has always been on since i've owned it.
Could use rear brakes right at fall time..
Front tires could use replacement
Passenger side window needs a regulator

So looks like....tires, brakes, window regulator, clock spring (AB light and horn?), and alignment.

Had 167k miles, so probably needs some other stupid shit too.

 

[donthelegend]

Pretty sure I've got a regulator and I know I've got a clock spring but I don't remember if it's got cruise control or not. Either way it would at least get you past inspection if you needed it. I've got lots of other random bits and pieces too left over from a couple of part-outs if you need something.

 

[besthaticouldo]

Oh, that would be much appreciated.

Inspection wouldn't be a big deal, I have a few friends that can do my inspection. Let me know if you ever need that. I just need to find a ride out there, it's in Foristell. LOL and I'm in Creve Coeur, so it's a good 40 minute drive.

 

[besthaticouldo]

Went and picked it up today for 1100.

NICE!Aany plans where you are going with the mods or just gonna wing it?

 

[besthaticouldo]

Mostly going to wing it, however there are some things that need to be addressed quickly.

It really needs seats, suspension, and tires.

 

[Tony_SS]

I was going to sell my wheels and tires.

 

[besthaticouldo]

Tony, what size wheels and tires? What kind of price were you looking for? Shoot me a pm.

I'd love to see your XJ, spent a while reading your awesome build thread yesterday.
