Adventurer
Hey all,
Looking to start adventuring a little further and with a little more comfort than what the Rubi can provide right now. Wanting to move up to an FJ Cruiser. Wifes 4 runner is very nice and reliable and we'd like to continue with this trend for a while.
2003 Rubicon-94K miles and going although I only put 6K miles a year on it.
Stock components of Rubicon included
Hard and soft top included
Stock springs and control arms included
Stock front and rear bumpers included. Front now has a stinger attached
Items that have been upgraded:
-Two sets of wheels and 1 set of tires:
(5) Stock Moabs with some rash, plastic dipped black with 285/75R16 Guard Dogs with kedge 80% tread.
(4) 15" Ultra wheels.
-4" RC lift.
-Bilstein shocks front and rear
-Diff lock mod done for locked front and rear separately and in any gear/2HI/4HI/4LOW
-Clutch replaced 10K miles ago
-Custom made rear bumper with tow hitch
-Trailer wiring installed
-Custom overhead console installed with 4 switches for accessories of your choice as well as a slot for CB and one for scanner
-Custom rear rack attached to rollbars for internal storage.
-Brand new balljoints upper and lower less than 1000 miles ago
-Brand new front hubs both sides less than 1000 miles ago
-Full synthetic replacement of all fluids
-upgraded 5.25" alpine speakers up front with custom brackets and 6.5" infinitys in the roll bar speakers. Both powered with a alpine 4 channel.
-10" kicker in sealed box powered by Pioneer amp
-Kenwood cd player. 1 guage wire powering the entire system.
-Sears AGM Platinum battery 6 months old. Plenty of warranty left.
-Whelen amber rear strobes installed above tail lights.
-8 bank fuse block installed behind glove compartment.
-Homemade Hardtop hoist
-AC outlet contraption bought from REI to power laptop, IPAD
The bad-spare moab has no tire and has grind marks inside of rim. I used a spare tire with RV antifreeze in it to get me home without an issue but I wouldnt run it as a primary. As a spare it works perfectly fine.
Typical rear transfer case seal that is leaking. Im working on this and should have it done by pickup. No big deal, just wanted to be honest.
This has been a great rig. Always reliable. Never beat. Did offroad mildly but its my daily so I needed to make sure I got home without an issue. Will come with all the above although not factored into the price obviously. Minor paint chips, very few. Clean silver rig. Red lift components.
$11,000 to EP members. I'd like to get working on getting an FJ sooner than later so that its ready for the spring and summer trips so all reasonable offers will be considered. I'd trade it in at the dealership but we all know they wont give me what its worth and then mark it up like hell and sell it.
