so i bought a tj

Specs: 98 tj 4.0 5 speed 90000 miles
hp dana 30 4.10s lunch box locker
8.8 disk breaks
clayton long arms
tummy tuck skid
rock sliders
Didnt come with a top but did come with hard doors and soft doors. The kid didnt know what he had and i chewed him down to 4300 bucks. I had a mechanic go over it with a fine tooth comb and its got rust but nothing thatwill prevent it from passing inspection. So let the discussion begin. Did i get a good deal? is it a pile?

Welcome

nice a lot of work done to it. you should be ready to wheel. what size lift did it come with? good luck with the new toy and welcome

Well, there’s an issue already!

The Clayton suspension sells for $2,700 so I’d say $4,300 was a pretty good deal.

P.S. When are we going to see you again?

Welcome and it does sound like you got yourself a good deal.

great deal, nicely done!

Welcome!

Turns out i dont think its a clayton kit but long arms none the less, good ones at that. Its not in bad shape should pass inspection other then the no cat thing. Its def ready to wheel minus the top cause I drove it tonight and it was cold. Its been beat on a little but the long arms are new and i can tell the guy whom owned prior ran leafs in it at one point and it hasnt been inspected in mass since 05 so it was a trailer rig for the last few years. Im registering it monday so whens the next trail ride?

If it’s a TJ it didn’t have leafs unless someone changed it to them( but why would you)!

If its definitely a 98 then it did not come from the factory with leafs. But there is a whole lot of stupid out there . . .

That’s for sure!

I seam to have no trouble with leafs :ugeek:

I believe it is January 12th in North Kingstown. Submit an application and then you will have access to the Events forum.

a previous owner had hacked on some leaf perches, all in all it looks decent in the dark… cant wait to see it in the daylight.

I looked in the events thing and saw no post about a trail run in nk
