Well I kept searching, to no avail. Everything I've found was either clapped out or 9-10k. The dealers sure are having a hay day with these things. I called on multiple and every dealer was the same. They don't know anything about service history, always the same answer "it runs and drive like...
I agree, on the fly by night auto dealers. There always scetchy at best. I'm also looking gx470's.. LOTS of shady used car dealerships are flipping them it seems. As you said, I'll keep searching. I haven't tried auto tempest yet. I'll check it out.
I asked and you'd already posted some... Thanks! That white one caught my eye, but it appears to have rust on the rear drivers side door. I may look at it anyway. I'm traveling up I5 Saturday so I can swing in and check some out.
Haha, you took the work out of it for me. I figured they picked it up at auction. Not gonna lie, the bumpers, sliders, lift etc. Caught my eye. I'd rather pick up a solid platform and build it. VS. buying some bling on a clapped out rig. Sounds like a big PASS. if you know of any good 100 series...
I am looking for a hundy for my wife. I found this one locally at a dealer (hack used car lot) looks as if some one loved it at one time. Problem I'm having is the 360k miles. I've got them to a price of 7k, and probably can get it a little lower if I go in person and start picking it apart...
After getting the motor in place (and breaking my windshield) I was ready to tackle the front suspension. Got the axle roughly placed on Jack stands, I got a idea of where my links were gonna go and legnth. I went ahead and built a truss on my axle out of some 1/4 plate, then got everything...
Used ruffstuff gm motor mounts which are just poly bushings, along with 5 more Dom bushing for the cases. The transfer case mounts are inline with the motor mounts with a third mount on the rear case using a poly bushing at the case aswell as at the frame sides.
Been a longtime since I've added anything to this. I've still got my 2k cruiser and I honestly don't know if I'll ever get rid of it. With that love comes UPGRADES! After all the previous upgrade I wheeled it for the winter and decided it was time to do something about the power or lack there...
Just curious what cruiser you got and was there pricing pretty good? I'm in WA and am putting feelers out for importers. And please let us know how this importer work out. Thanks.
Yeah I already planned to cannibalize the old mount for the top plate, it's 1/4" steel or really close to it. As you stated, already has the bolt holes and bends. I also thought that welding two bushings to it would work pretty good. Ok, good enough for me. I'll start cleaning up the plate, then...
Old post but hopefully you resolved this. I'm dealing with the same issue currently and looking for ideas on what other did. Please post some pics of what you ended up with
Nice, I was wondering about the AA setup, seems like you would shatter the case. Funny I just ordered 6 bushed Dom sleeves from ruffstuff.... Black Friday sale 25% off total purchase. Figured I'd buy 6 as here in the near future I'm gonna have to fab motor mounts also. Plus it's a PITA to get...
Hey guys after a long week of playing in the mountains, I found I broke the bearing retainer off the front of my trans. Not a huge deal but had to pull the trans/case. Georg@ Valley hybrids got me hooked up with a replacement. Now I'm about to put all back together and I've run into a snag! My...
