Can deliever! Portland, Oregon. We are needing a bigger rig so regrettably this one must go. This was my wife's birthday present last year, it was a southern California car its whole life, NO RUST, and we have put thousands into it making it a suitable daily driver. It was repainted to original color shortly before we purchased it. We have driven it over 10k miles since, its now 172,500 Mi on the odo meter. The engine is a very low mileage 6.5L Diesel, the turbo was just rebuilt, with a completely rebuilt (100 mi on it) 4L80e transmission. The AC was entirely gone through, with a new compressor, drier, all new lines with added safety switch and it blows COLD! averages about 42 deg on a 90 deg day. The entire brake system (except the rear drums) is new or rebuilt, including master cylinder, rear wheel cylinders, pads, shoes, hardware, lines, and rotors. The front and rear axles have been rebuilt all bearings and seals, including the front knuckles. We did a SOA lift with new perches and spring bolts where necessary. A high steer kit was installed and heavy duty .25 DOM tubing and new 3/4 heim ends were used when building new steering linkage. New KYB shocks on all corners and new 35x12.5x17 in Toyo tires were installed 4 weeks ago as well. A viper remote start was installed as well as a boost/egt/trans temp gauge. A new carpet was installed and the entire rig was treated to dynamat at the same time. A Garmin HUD (heads up display) was installed for projecting turn by turn directions onto the windshield. An alpine cd/usb/aux/Bluetooth stereo was installed with an alpine amp, alpine 10 in sub and 4 speakers. A custom exhaust was built for the 6.5 from the turbo to the tail 3 in with a Magnaflow muffler and a K@N airfilter. A contour high CFM dual fan shroud was installed along with a Dakota Digital fan controller. Lots of other bits and pieces here and there. We have driven this rig all over and it hums at 75MPH turning 1900 rpm. My wife drives this thing everyday and turns heads the whole time. I would drive this to Alaska today with no hesitation. There are a few thing left to tidy up before its "completely" done such as the cruise control module and control unit were installed but has 5 wires left to connect to make it work and Im about to rebuild the T case. The only body damage is a quarter inch sized dent below the pass taillight and a hard to see shallow dent in the rear bumper. I will be uploading pictures tomorrow and would be happy to send videos or other pics as requested. I can deliver anywhere with prepayment and travel (fuel, food, flight back) costs.
Only asking $17,500 OBO

Thanks for looking,
James

Great lightbar placement and really awesome rear u-joint angle. Love the invisible front driveshaft.
 
Light bar was directly in front of the springs so anything that went through the light bar had to also go through the springs. Figured that's not gonna happen ever, so far I'm right. Hadn't installed the front shaft yet. It fit fine. Rear driveline doesn't care if it's offset up and down or left to right or any combo thereof as long as it's less than three degrees. Cheers.

Still not sure about the light bar placement though.......If you were in the rock with that it would get ripped off on the first obstacle. Highway Vehicle?? Fine I guess.
 
Again it is right in front of the shackles. Unless the obstacles also slide on the shackles and springs it's not a problem. It's also 5-6 inches higher than the front axle so unless your grinding your front axle on any obstacles it's still not an issue. Cheers.
 
I liked this truck, too bad it sold!! I can drive without a driveshaft, just roll around in 4H all of the time

:eek:
 
Whatever

I didn't mean to hurt your feelings sweetie. Put in your big girl panties and then we can talk about the pros and cons of grinding those steel springs and shackles in rocks.

Better yet get a girlfriend so you don't have to troll the old classifieds and try and sharpshoot someone else's truck.
Good luck on that.
