At idle, it makes no noise however when i put it into either reverse or drive it makes a vibration/rattle noise that gets worse at about 1k-3k rpm and...

    Id be working as a service rep and sales. I would be working as a service rep, valet and social media rep. I am not opposed to going to a technical school to become a mechanic though. Im learning as much as i can on the car. At this point i have no other choice other than to send it and hope...

    300 mile journey

    Haha yea ive heard horror stories of what people came out of pocket. Im very much willing to invest in this car though. Its odometer is broken but last clocked in at 141K. The title when the previous owner bought it was 98K. So i think i got a goodie for the 4500 price tag. Where are you located...

    300 mile journey

    Think im just gonna go for it. The pros outweigh the cons. If i was to leave my rig, i dont know when id be able to get it back. I plan on working 6 days a week only cause sundays we close and i wouldnt have time to go back down to the city and pick it up. Unless you have any qualms about the idea.

    To clarify, he said the crunching isnt coming so much from the brakes as he said the axle. He told me he didnt have the time or capability to fully check it out. As far as knuckles and prior upkeep, i got nothing. The previous owner is a mechanic and very busy. I know this is as vague of a...

    Its a viper. Not sure which model though. I tried finding it but couldn't. The other poster was right though, check ebay. Before i bought the car, someone was offering almost 2K for it but the seller declined.

    FZJ80 with 141 miles what should i do to it.

    Haha yeah my interior could use some love. The first 3 or 4 days i had it i spent cleaning everything down to the last corners. I definitely want to invest more into getting it operating exactly how i want before inside goodies though. I plan on getting a HAM or CB radio and a nice screen to...
