That doesn't make me smile.

What are you doing with the axle?

 

[firetruck41]

I don't think they're supposed to look like that

It bent the housing to so I am sharing the parts with the local norcal 80s.

If you end up with the brackets that hold the control arms to the axle when you're done parting it out, I would sure be interested in them

Gumby, I'll cut off the brackets for ya. 45 mph hit to a vehicle that thought they could make it. My friends '95 with his wife driving, 3 people in the vehicle including a young baby, all OK. they walked away and bought another '97 w/lockers this time because they felt so safe. It lost the oilpan, broke the bellhousing, bent the driveshaft, bent the axle housing, bent frame,twisted the cabin, and only 88k miles :-[ :-[

I am glad to hear the passengers were all ok - I have a 2 year old and a new one on the way, so it is good to hear the cruiser protected the passengers- I am curious if the stock bumper or an aftermarket unit (which one) was on it? Also did airbags go off?

 

[lagwagon]

Both airbags went off and worked well according to my friend.

 

[e9999]

so, who hit who then?

Thanks for the brackets! I need to move the control arms on my coil sprung 40 and I don't know if I could save the brackets that are on there now.

 

[97 FZJ80]

Are you parting out the 80? I need some interior parts.

 

[96Cruiser]

*Glancing at the cruisers plate ..*

Does the owner also own a trimaran ? Perhaps a 45 footer ...

 

[lagwagon]

Yes, interior parts are for sale in the for sale section. As for the wheels, I could not find a matching chrome to make a set of four as one wheel was damaged so I am powdercoating them black. But my standard '94 wheels are for sale! The guy my buddy got the Cruiser from towed something big and had a trailer brake controller. The guy sold the Cruiser to get a G-Wagon!
