Unibody is pretty beat down and I'd been considering a complete swap to a nicer unibody (this one's getting rusted out) but wanted to see if there was any interest before I do that. If I throw all my stuff into a nicer uinbody I'll probably never get rid of it! :sonicjay:

probably forgetting something ... just call - we can talk

did you get that from alboy on here? that looks familiar...

 

[two_much_talk]

yup. needed a tranny and a tune up. after the tune up and AX-15 swap it's run flawless.


I have some other random things that go with this jeep as well. spare this and that. call or pm if your serious.

For the record the wife doesn't want me to get rid of this unless a good deal is struck. So think up something and we'll talk.

thanks for looking :thumb:

i can't do anything with it right now, i was just wondering because it looked familiar and it was briefly mine before al got it...as in he was helping me by using his truck and trailer to pick up the xj, and we decided he was going to buy it from me before we had unloaded it:sonicjay:

good luck with the sale :beerbang:

 

[two_much_talk]

Got it, welll as you can testify this one has come a long way ! I really have a lot of time into getting it to run good and making it work on the trail. It's been all around and has only broke a couple of minor things :rock:

 

[two_much_talk]

Oh ! I just remembered ... I have an extra frt and rr axle housing with shafts for both, a set of trail spare unit bearings, a drive shaft that needs the cv rebuilt, the front doors, the rear hatch glass, and probably a hand full of other jeep stuff that goes with this jeep.


In other words you can buy this jeep and all the stuff that goes with and go wheeling AND have spare parts !

yea it was basically a nice base with a blown transmission when you got it.

 

[two_much_talk]

yeah I can't believe anyone thought that BA-10 was ever worth more than a pile dog crap :teehee:

thanks

[nosights]

I have seen this rig in action and it performs 2,000% better than it looks!

One of the most capable "budget" XJ's I have ever seen. Common people...don't miss out on this deal!
