k so you seem to know what going on a lot more than i do lol
so if its taken in for inspecttion and bearings brakes bearings bushings all that are good
and he puts 4:88 gears on and superchip
the only thing left is the tranny (if it still has a problem after the cable and gears are looked after)
would you still say its a bad buy?
since the tires are brand new should i possibly sell them and move down to say a 35 or 36 inch tire?

Get the gears done, and the trans issue dealt with, (might just be the TV cable adjustment.....) inspected and all that other rot you have to deal with there, and 7500 wouldn't be out of line.....

Selling the huge tires on there now, and then picking up a set of 35's with the proceeds REALLY wouldn't be a bad plan.

Ya know, I get the impression that you really want to get this one?

well i just sold my 2000 ram 1500 for 5500 this week with 183 000 km and some surface rust, not in perfect shape. it was great to me and A LOT of fun.
7500 bucks with 118000 km no rust anywhere seems ok lol
and the yellow matches my m3
just turned 19 young and dumb i guess haha

Will fit right in in the rear diff, will need to change the carrier in the front. You can find them used for as little as 80 bucks on EBay. (open carrier.....)
