SOLD!!!!

For Sale: A 1997 LX450 that is built from bone stock 2 years ago into a off road beast. When I do something I go all the way. I tried to mirror jcardona1's FJ80 as much as I could as I truly think that is one of the best out there. This FZJ80 followed suit with 4 Wheel Undergrounds 3Link in front (Stage 3) with matching rear shocks from Radflo, rear OME springs. For protection, went to Luke at 4x4 Labs and went with there front and rear bumpers along with sliders. Gears were upgraded to 5.29 and all wheel and axel barrings were replaced with Koyo or Timkin. Additional, Nitro Gear chromo axles & berfs were installed.

This list is extensive as to what I have done. Basiclly if I touched it, it was replaced with premium gear.

Additionally, I went trick on the audio system with a nice Alpine INE-W967HD paied with KAC-001 so the ARM compressor and lockers are controlled by the screen on the deck, not switches on the dash. JL Audio ZR separates, Polk Audio coax rears, JL HD amps to power front and rears along with the JLW6v3 10" sub in custom box.

It has 194k miles.

I just can explain how much effort, time, and money went into this build so I will list what I have receipts for and show you in pictures. As I find the words to write all I have done I will expand but I am a motivated seller due to financial issues.

Asking $15,000 OBO. Motivated to sell, reasonable offers will be heard. No trades.
Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Apologies. I am new to this site and not sure how to PM. Please contact me. Five 2 Zero 7 Eight 0 One 77 Eight.
 
I'm relatively new to the site, so I started a conversation...
 
Oh well, that stinks. Great buy!
 
Well i thought i was the lucky winner here!!! I had a make shift contract w the mans banking info to wire money first thing in morning than i received a text just before midnight my time w the seller asking for more money. Good luck to the man that out bided me. Guess the ad here should have had a reserve of 15k w a 5 day auction.....:bang:
 
Nice job on that contract/agreement you emailed me last night TOO BAD YOUR NOT A MAN OF WORD. Yes I'm a little MIFFED
 
You should probably meantion the rear main seal leak in your ad. Which by the way didn't deter me from the sale. Buyers be warned.
 
Regardless of what transpired, this rig was WAY underpriced! I know what I would have paid for it all day long...
