Hey there, is that in Palmerston North ?? if so I know some of it's history

heres is a pic of mine with 2 inch OME suspension lift , 5 speed man running 33s and a guard trim so the tires don't catch the guard on the way up. Have also chucked out the rear sway bar, and also have mega short SYE ( found out the hard way ) well not really just didn't do it when I should have and it caught me out.



also in my experience hard tops get knocked on trees easily, thats why I went back to soft top, I have The half doors for that TJ you're looking at as well

I dont know what the exact lift on it is, that was just a guess

but he did tell me the tyres were 33x12.5x15

Picking it up this Saturday morning from Palmy. Would love to know some more history. Are you around WRNGLR on sat? Could pop over if your not too far

Youll be crawling the walls after the honeymoon period is over wanting some 4.10 or 4.56 diffs to get some oomph out of it. You'll also be sick of watching your fuel guage head to E if youre spending a heap of time in city type driving.

Dont suppose theres any links to this wagon in the car yards website?

Its manual and only 81,000kms

Nah no link sorry, there was one which just states that they have a wrangler with no info, no images and no price

yeah mate im in ashhurst just 13km west of Palmy ( towards napier), will be home saturday, bowl on round for a cuppa and I'll tell what I know, good rig tho so don't worry.

sent pm with phone number , but here it is again 0272 560 470

Awesome, sounds good!

Cheers,

Fraser

sweet see ya Saturday then

cheers
Greg
