thanks! back up
 
to the top
 
Nice

I think it would cost me more to build this than to buy yours. All I have is a BJ60 I am trying to trade/sell. Anything you are willing to take off to lower the price?
 
ALL PM'S REPLIED TO.

Thanks for the interest. There are some very creative trade offers! I like it!
 
No interest??
 
I hear ya! Back to the top.
 
come on....bump
 
Nice 40....
Wish I had the balls to let go of my 80 for this, but I'm spoiled by the coils and luxury. If I could buy this outright and keep the 80 as well, your wallet would be heavier.

You can do it! Damn I want an 80 baaaad. Come on fellas!

:bang:
 
back up!
 
fzj80 trade

How about a trade for my:

97' FZJ80. 122k, black, factory lockers, leather, sunroof, ect. Clean interior de-wood trimed, husky liners, good seat covers, kenwood stereo. All in all clean interior.

approx 3.5" lift with OME 850J in front and 863 in rear. Procomp es9000 shocks, slee caster plates. Slee DC front drive shaft, extended breathers. Slee front sway bar blocks. Suspension works well and only has about 5k on it. No driveline vibes, little jiggly on a rough highway, but smooth as silk on a smooth highway. Cruises 75 all day. 315/75R16 dick cepek mud country with about 4k miles on them. They are siped, so they do pretty well in snow and Ice, I have chains for them as well.

PM, I changed diff, tranny, radiator, tcase fluids with synthetic about 10k ago, did it 2x to get them cleaned out. The birfs need to be done, I am going to do it soon, just moving and doing house work for the last few months. Power Steering pump is a little leaky, but that is the only thing I can tell it needs. Replaced plugs, wires recently, oil pump seal, antena with black rubber. Just replaced rear brake calipers, pads, rotors, and beld brake system.

Paint has a few pin stirpes and is missing a flare. I have all hardware to replace the flare ($150!) but no flare. If I keep it, I'll probably just pull all the flares as they are kind of a pain. and just rino line. All in all great exterior. With a coat of wax looks pretty damn good.

custom front bumper out of 3/8 and 1/8 steel, ready for a winch. Custom sliders that just need the finishing touches to mount up. Very high clearance and low weight sliders and bumper.

Let me know what you think


I live up in Eagle.
