is it a 4x4? V6 or 8? Inside pics?

[moels]

Sorry, I should have added more info. It is a 4.0 liter V6 and is 4 wheel drive. It has the Auto-4wheel hi-4wheel low options.

Very clean vehicle inside and out. I was really surprised when I bought it how nice it was. It does have approx. 144k on the ticker but it runs real good. I can take more detail pics tomorrow, just pm me with whatever you would like to see.

[Car Guy]

Which 4.0L, pushrod or OHC...???

I would also take trades for motorcycle or something of equal value. I will put it on Craigslist tomorrow for $2000 firm, but I am open to offers from BCM members.

Engine is a 4.0L EFI

[T-Bag]

97's should have the SOHC motor

[moels]

97's should have the SOHC motor

The only thing it says is 4.0L EFI. How do I tell if it is indeed an SOHC motor?

[RanJer]

SOHC motor was intro'd that year.. depending on when it was made it could be a 160hp 4.0 or a 205hp 4.0

Must be the venerable OHV as most OHC are not running at 144k, frickin junk shit.
Nice looking truck with a nice price.

[moels]

Yep, it's the OHV version. Thanks for the info!

[moels]

KBB says private party value in good condition is $3180. I am going to put it on Craigslist right now for $3000 or offer. still $2000 or offer for the BCM crowd.

[Windsors 03 Cobra]

$2g's is a steal man, thats a shame nobody here has use for it.
Auto or stick ?

[moels]

It is an automatic.

[RanJer]

If I can get rid of my GTP before you sell it I'll definitely be giving you a call.

Does it need any sort of suspension work? I had a 96 sport that ripped through ball joints like nobody's business..

[moels]

When I bought it it had some body roll to it. Looked and found the swaybar endlinks were broke on drivers side and bushings worn on the pass. side. I got a whole new kit including the frame bushings and re-did it all. It rides great now. I bought new shocks in case I needed to replace them and they are new in box and go with the vehicle.

[T-Bag]

If this was back in January I would be all over this! Shit I almost want to buy it just because its so cheap! Fuggin Impulsive buying!

lol

[moels]

This is a nice vehicle for the price.

[moels]

Sold!
