I'm selling my trail-rig/sunny day daily driver. This truck I have owned since April, and in that time have had quite a bit of fun with it.

The good
This truck is a great trail rig, and has been a reliable sunny day daily driver. I took it on a 450 mile beach trip at the end of September, and took it to Uwharrie for the Uwharrie 5. Has an R380 transmission, and 100,3XX miles. Clean title, though not in hand at the moment.

The good:
Safari Gard Front bumper
Safari Gard Stage III suspension
Safari Gard 3-link
Safari Gard rear trailing links
Safari Gard rock sliders
Rover Tracks Tie-Rod
Rover Tracks Drag Link
Rover Tracks Panhard Bar
Rock Ware Frame Sliders
Super Winch 9000
Tuffy Center Console
Aeroquip braided stainless steel oil cooler lines
Flex-A-Lite 220 electric fans
33 x 12.50 Good Year MTR's
15 x 8" American Racing steel wheels
Bilstein 7100 remote reservior shocks
Flowmaster muffler
Door Tops included
Safari Gard Rear Work Light
Best Top Surrey Top 9.5/10
Alpine Head Unit
Pioneer 3-way speakers


The bad:
Truck has seen salt and has rust on the rear frame, and rear A-arm. The rear cross-member is rusted out, and i have plated it to re-inforce it. There are 2 other small spots on the frame that need to be patched, and I will try to have that done before it sells, but if not, I don't want to suprise anyone. There is rust on the bulk-head, and in the floor board, 2 holes have rusted through. Front Diff is dented, passenger seat cover cover is torn, the heater box impeller is siezed. Check Engine light is on, O2 sensor code. There is also some rust on the underside of the seat box. Has the usual steering box leak, and leaking rear Tcase output seal... I dont really considers these bad, they're more like standard rover features.

This truck runs and drives well, and is a great trail rig, as you can take it out, beat on it, and not feel bad. It will go just about anywhere you point it. Would it be a great restoration candidate... probably not, but for a D90 you can have a fun with it's hard to beat.


Price $13,250.

ha. stellar.

What about shipping?

Shipping the jackstand or the Defender?

The jackstand, UPS $40.

The Defender, you'll want to talk to come car hauler type places and see what kind of rates they offer.

For the right price I'd be willing to trailer it part way if you wanted to meet me.

No axle, diff, or prop shaft issues. This truck runs and drives like a champ

Not quite what I meant...

Lockers? 4.11s? Woodies? GBR/Ashcroft?

tempting...

no doubt.....I'd love to pick this up as a little project for topless AZ cruising

Wish I had a spare $12k laying around. Maybe I should go to Washington to request some bail out money...
