Classifieds If it's for sale or wanted, this is the section for it.

In order to maintain uniformity and fairness please follow these rules when posting in the classified sections:

1. Put what the item is AND the location of the item in the title of the ad. Can be the State or City/State.

2. All items must have a starting price. Items can be sold in groups or individually and can be "or best offer" (OBO) but must have a starting price point.

3. It is highly recommended that you post a current photograph of the item you are selling. This will help interested parties to see what kind of condition it's in and help increase your odds of getting it sold.

4. There are multiple classified sections, please make sure you are posting your item in the appropriate area.

5. If you post a link to your Craigslist/Ebay ad please also copy and paste the info and photos here.

6. If the item being sold is NOT YOURS and you are posting it from another site such as Craigslist/Ebay, please make sure it is in the "Third-party Sales" forum and copy and paste the info and at least one photo here.

7. Please DO NOT ask for a thread you created in the For Sale forum to be deleted. We do not delete these threads as they are transaction records and can assist both buyers and sellers in the event things do not work out as planned. When an item has been sold, please indicate so in the original thread. This will alert other members that the item is no longer available.

8. MOST IMPORTANTLY: Follow the golden rule in classified threads please. If you don't have something nice to say, keep it to yourself. Keep any negative comments about prices, condition, listing, etc. to yourself. If you're not actually interested in the item for sale, do not post in the thread. If there's something about a listing that you think is fraudulent, illegal or abusive, PM bigwalton or report the post.

Lastly, per the agreement when you registered, the admins have the right to delete any post for any reason.

Trust,
Is your scrambler still for sale? My son is very interested. He wants something reliable. He likes the way you have built yours. The only bad part is we are in Virginia. you can reach him at codydmassey@gmail.com.
Cheers,
Truck
I changed my membership from BASIC to Gold Member in late January and sent $120. I am still listed as a BASIC member. Why?

I would like to get 1 of your cross members to fit my 1983 scrambler.
Price and shipping to 97222 in Oregon.

thanks troy
Issue: My 4.2 is currently not running. I was driving down the road and heard a "Poof" sound. I know, I know, great description. I pulled over and the motor was running hot and a little bit of oil smoke was coming out of the oil breather filter on the top. The motor turns over and I will give you the actions that I took below.
Currently working on my 1982 Scrambler that "died" toward the end of the summer and an XJ that has some rust issues. I'm not going to give up on it even though it gave up on me. Also, looking for events to meet up with some CJs. I am currently living in NC but home is MI.
