Any Market for Used TJ Lift Kits?
Yesterday I ordered a brand new Rubicon Express Extreme Duty long arm
lift to replace the tired Teraflex/RE/whatever kit that's on my TJ right now. I debated reusing some of the old lift parts, but then I said to myself "do it three times and do it right." (get it, this is the third lift, do it right the first time . . . I guess you had to be there <lol>) Anyway, the RE kit is complete with all the bits and pieces and when all is said and done I'm going to have a complete 4.5" short arm kit left over. Is there a market for a well used lift kit? The only part of the lift that's in really good shape is the shocks, with about 5K miles on them. The rest of it is . . . well, tired. The Teraflex arms bushings are in need of replacement, there is play where the threads have worn against each other. Many of the parts have a patina of rust, rock rash or both. Is there any value to this? Where might be the best place to sell it? tia Dean |

Try craigslist and pirate 4x4. Someone on a someone on a budget will buy it.

Heh, someone will want this for replacement parts or to fix collision
damage. The trouble of course is to find them. Earle "Carl" <carlsaiyed@hotmailREMOVE.com> wrote in message news:cNmdncsnVJX92JXZRVn-rA@comcast.com... > Try craigslist and pirate 4x4.

Re: Any Market for Used TJ Lift Kits?
E-bay. Even if you talk about the "tiredness" of the parts (keeps your
conscience clear), they should go for a premium. You will have to ship them though.
