1990 5-dr Widebody Bighorn w. dead donk

Well, as some of you know the fickle finger of fate has taken my new toy and broken it.

Its a '90 5-door wide body (big factory flares) with a snorkle, manual Aisin hubs, Irmscher bits (heated recaros etc), 5-speed, 2.8TD (Suspected overheat, turns over will not fire), big bore front-to-back exhaust, alloy wheels and mud tyres (borderline warrantable possibly) and alloy with good spare.

Body is in ok-good cond, blue. The interior is really tidy, apart from the light smell that someone in the past was an in-car smoker.

Its in Christchurch, NZ...

I will either sell the whole truck complete for $1500, or will part it out. I'm not in a hurry (well, not in as much of a hurry as my wife is :lol:

) so will wait about a week. If there is no interest in taking the whole truck away for repower or rebuild then I will begin stripping it and sending its bits and pieces all over the country as required

If you are interested then please give me a shout on 021 637 600 or steve@4wdstuff.co.nz or leave a message here

Oh, and the motor is definitely dead, not just a loose wire or something simple... I'm pretty sure I lost coolant on a drive into town and didn't notice, probably through a split hose or frostplug then it just died on me... thought I'd better clarify that... it will need replacing or rebuilding... I have neither the time nor the space to do it.. too many other projects

Cheers

Steve

how many kms has it done steve and is all the running gear pretty good?

SupraLux · Post by **SupraLux** » Sun Feb 26, 2006 9:39 pm

360,000km on the clock... and assuming it had 100,000 wound off it when it was first imported then god knows

Some trucks have 100kms on the clock and look like they've done 500, this is the opposite.

Its pretty tidy, and mechanically everything seems fairly straight. The 5-speed is in pretty good knick by the feels of having driven it for a few weeks and all around is pretty straight. Its got new brake pads all round and the brakes seemed pretty good.

I've got to talk to the insurance company about a new windscreen... it doesn't need one I think but there is a chip in it, and I was paying for windscreen cover so I may as well have it replaced while its still a WOF and reg going concern...

Any other questions, please ask.

Crash and carry?

MATT4U · Post by **MATT4U** » Tue Feb 28, 2006 4:08 pm

thats the one

I'm moving sheds, and telling no-one... and the raid needs to be on Riks place anyway, most of my stuff is on his mobile parts carryer (his 'lux! :roll:

)

No nibbles thus far, so heres a list of parts I can figure I will sell immediately with prices (negotiable if you bring beer

)

Note: What I'm trying to do here is recover as much of what I originally paid for the truck (about 4-5 weeks ago! sigh...) as possible, and to help pay for the new one I just bought - which very well could be the next project looking at the cool factory suspension in the rear... I am open to offers on things, so let me know if you need something and let me know what you want to pay for it

snorkle: $200 - airflow, think it could be a safari one
alloys (16" with marginal mud tyres on them): $100
seats $300 to Matt or Rik, $100 to anyone else (Recarro with bum-heater)
Interior trim in good nick: offers
rear axle w. diff (4.5 prob): $150
Rear brake calipers with mech. handbrake actuators: $100/pr
2.5" complete exhaust system, good nick: $100
Turbo and intercooler + plumbing: $150
Injector pump - NOT leaking: $150
radiator: $50
Front diff, CVs, etc: $100
Aisin manual hubs: $150
Dead motor - good for rebuild?: free (short motor)
Alternator, good pump: $150
Starter: $80
5-speed and t/c: $200

Anything else, just ask

Steve
