The complete Engine/A442F auto/Transfer case was purchaed through G&S CruiserParts in BC and professionally installed here by the LC Diesel Guru - Raymond Fourie in the summer of 2004. The cost was $16,000+. At that time, the vehicle had 115,000 km (72,000 miles) and the engine assembly had 50,000 km(31,000miles)
The vehicle now has 176,500 km(109,700 miles), I runs flawlessly and burns and leaks NO OIL and as you see gets little regular use and no hard use.
The vehicle get 10.5-11.5 L/100km or about 20.5-22.5 US mpg in combined driving.
Some recent work: @ 175,500 km
Full front axle/hub/birfield service including all new seals, bearings, Amsoil synthetic birfield regrease, etc.
Complete front brake overhaul including new rotors, 100 series pads, rebuilt calipers. (thanks Cdan.)
Some recent work: @ 166,200 km
New timing belt and valve lash adjustment
Installed Walbro 6065 lift pump and Amsoil single bypass oil filtration system.
Removed intake manifold and cleaned out EGR grime/crud. Currently the computer controlled EGR system is disabled but can be easily be re-enabled.
Other features:
- Front and rear Lockers
- CDL switch
- Hand throttle/cable
- Heated drivers seat
- Slee skid plate and wiper washer bottle relocation kit.
- dual batteries with 12V starting circuit.
- Bridgestone 265-75/R16 tires with 30,000 miles
- Intake air charge electric heater in place - being in Vancouver I never wired up a switch.
- AirCare (emissions testing) compliant in BC. Always cleanly breezes through testing.
Complete mechanical inspection by prospective buyers welcome. Lots of additional photos available.

This is an original Canadian vehicle and can therefore be imported into the USA. State emission requirements I can't speak to.

Exceptional Vehicle in Extraordinary Condition.
