Recently picked up an 1997 FZJ with 300,000mi on the dash but had the motor swapped to a lower milage motor with 100,000mi and rebuilt the transmission. He also said that the knuckles have recently been serviced. Mechanic that did the lift and gears is a good friend of mine and told me this buy was a steal. I paid $7250.
All listed is the aftermarket things on the truck when purchased:
-ARB Bumper with VR8000 Winch
-5.29 Gears
-Safari Snorkel
-Slee 6" Lift
-37x13.50 r18 Mud Grapplers
-18" XD Monster
Previous owner did remove all the carpet and bed liner the inside and many trim pieces were missing. Since i have owned the truck I have tracked down some carpet and everything missing. The Inside is beginning to look very clean but, the headliner has a lot of mud/dirt in it and i don't know how to tackle that..
Since owning the truck, i have done the rear bearings and seals ... the bearings were basically disintegrated and there was no bearing cage and all the rollers were in the bottom of the hub... lol don't think thats been done in 300,000 miles. I also replaced the ignition components (plugs, wires, dizzy, rotor, and dizzy o-ring) just cause the o-ring went bad and i thought i might as well do it all. I also changed all fluids and oil.
What should i do next?
