87 jeep YJ for sale
1987 Wrangler
231K miles on tub, metallic red.
Drivetrain:
4.2 six cylinder
5 speed manual
no emissions equipment
Motorcraft MC2150 carb
2 1/2" exhaust w/flowmaster muffler
Suspension:
2 1/2" Rancho lift
Edelbrock shock absorbers
Teraflex revolvers
no rear trackbar
no front swaybar
33" mud tires on 15x8 black AR rims
Interior
Tan
no carpet
tuffy glovebox
tuffy center console
Bestop seats
newer tan softop w/tinted windows
half doors with sliding glass uppers... Also have TWO sets of normal uppers
CB radio mounted in console
and my favorite interior bit- a well worn "ROCKNOB"
Body
mostly rust free
20 year old paint
Rubicon TJ flares
Primal rocker protection
Primal front bumper
stainless black grill inserts
hi-lift mounted on hood
OKAY, the BAD:
current engine is out of a '72 CJ. Guy I bought the engine from said that it had a recent rebuild, bored '060 with a cam. I got suckered. Engine has blow-by, a "tap", and a bad valve seal on the #6 cylinder. I have to swap the plugs around about every 1,000 miles to keep #6 from fouling out.
has a problem starting when it's hot. Even though the carb is less than a year old, I think it's leaking down, "flooding" the engine. BOTH of these problems may be fixed, because this week I'm installing another 4.2 I-6. I don't know the condition of this engine, but it does have a Weber carb installed on it. Either way, don't expect this vehicle to pass emissions.
Transmission is the Peugot BA10, and of course this means it's a piece of garbage. 1,2, and 3 are a little noisy. 4 is quiet, but 5 whines occasionally on the freeway.
Honestly, I love this jeep, and if I didn't have this deal fall in my lap, I'd continue on improvements to make it a GREAT vehicle.
because of it's age, and "condition", I'm honestly open to offers at the moment, so if this sounds like something that would fit your needs MAKE AN OFFER!!!!
