****REDUCED****
4,900.00
For sale or trade! (I cant believe that Im doing this)
1988 FJ62 in Reno, NV.!
Specs:
Stock 3FE with 227K
Stock A440 auto trans
Blue, lined lower line, rear 1/4 chop.
Custom, home brew rear bumper with dual swings
35 in BFG MT's 80% tread with Black steels, 2.5 in BS
SOA with stock springs and long aal's
C and T'd front housing
Custom diff guard
DC rear shaft
Stock front shaft
4:88 gears f/r
Longs up front with aussie locker
Stock rear with lock rite
Cutsom wrap bar
Marlin sliders
Wood bed bin for storage and sleeping
Issues:
Most of the usual rust has been taken care of, cut out and new panels welded in. However, there is the rear channel rust on the frame.
It does have some dents and dings. It was used exclusively as my wheeler, so it has taken some hits on rogue rocks.
The steering wheel is "off" when driving down the road, and it does have a pull to the right. When I did the C and T, I was off a bit when setting the steer arms, and this is a result. Youre not FIGHTING to stay on the road by any means, but she does pull.
I do not have to smog this rig, so Im not sure if she'll pass.
She does have a leak in the muffler. I was planning on a Vortec swap, so I never felt the need to address is. Because of this issue, I suspect that she wont pass smog until that is replaced.
Other info:
Ive owned this rig for almost 4 years and all work (except the drive shaft build and the re gear had been done by me and thouroughly documented here on Mud. There are NO SECRETS about this rig. Search my user name and youll find everything there is to know, and what I have done. Ive put a great deal of pride and care into her and my work on her.
Ive NEVER beat on this rig. I wheel with a very light pedal and its always gotten me home (except the pittman arm break...that wasnt my fault).
Im selling/ trading because I am of the opinion that this rig will never be what I want it to be without complete dismanteling and lots of time and money, or just totally thrashing the body. Im looking to find something smaller and lighter for the type of wheeling that I really like to do.
With all that being said...
Im putting it up for 4,900.00 OBO, or TRADE for a similarly built mini truck, tacoma, 4 runner (preferred) or POSSIBLY FJ40.
Im NOT trying to KILL anyone on a price or re coop all ive put into this. Im a very reasonable individual. All I want to do is be able to start/ complete a different rig better suited for my needs.
Thanks for looking!
If you need anything specific, lemme know and Ill get it for you.
