This is sold as-is for parts/possible repair. Clanging sound in transmission when I was driving, so I turned back and limped it home, and there it's been sitting. Engine runs well, ABS brakes work (light needs reset though), Transfer case worked well last time I used it. Interior is in fair shape, common leaking sunroof problem, seats are ok, including 3rd row. 4 good 16" wheels. Fifth wheel has rust stains. Roof rack with Thule cross bars. Hood release cable snapped, right rear door won't open. Typical New England undercarriage rust. Interior rear panels were removed when attempting to fix sunroof leak, then I lost the plastic push pins that attach them when I moved, along with a hand hold that goes above the rear door -easy enough to replace if looking to fix/restore. New rear driveshaft installed not long before transmission gave in. Vehicle will drive onto trailer if need be (Manual says it has to be towed with all 4 wheels of the ground). It moves forward and reverses. Don't know specifically what is going on with the transmission, maybe cracked flex plate, maybe other failure internally, but I see used ones sold for not much these days. PRICED AS PARTS VEHICLE, but the mechanically inclined can easily swap out transmission and have a legendary 4x4 to play with. Front fascia/headlights were swapped with 03-04 style. Sold as-is, where-is.
