So I am going to plan ahead for the worst. If I can't find a new motor in a decent price range the heep has to go.
The motor still starts and runs, barely! Overheats quickly and blows exhaust thru the radiator immediatley. (I know everyone on here is going to say just put a head gasket on it and call it a day, but with close to 300k on the clock and all the other various noises it made. I have been expecting this to happen for quite some time.)
The Good:
231J t-case is a fresh rebuild with about a year of street driving on it and other then testing after I rebuilt it. It has not seen 4wd in dirt ever!
Aw4 shifts fine and doesn't seem to slip. Always got me moving when the skinny pedal went down.
8.25 out back, D30 disco up front (was swapped in from an 89 when I first got it running due to original being taco'd)
RE 4.5" lift brand new front springs, used leafs from Grimm rebuilt with full length leaf liners thru out. Also has 2" spacers up front and long shackles to even out the rear. Also have (I think RE) drop brackets, and Adj upper arms with non adj lowers. I dont know the brands of the arms.
One good pair of 32" BFG AT up front and a decent pair of 32"s out back. Rear tires are not BFG I forget the brand I can check and update later.
Also have a pair of BFG 32" that I would only use as a spare or rollers. Not daily use IMO.
I dont know the brand of the wheels, but they are 15x8 2.75 or 3.25 BS. Again I forget right now but can update further if there is interest.
Interior is not destroyed, but far from clean. rear seat is dirty but no rips. Front seats are dirty and have the normal slide in/out wear/rips on the outer side of the bottom. Headliner is shot.
Has the rear soundbar.
I'm sure im forgetting stuff. Ask questions if there are any. I will PM my cell number or send me yours and I'll happily text responses and pics of anything.
BTW probably 90% of my parts came from Naxja FWIW.
Thanks,
Asa :bawl:
