sar4x4 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 I can always do a road trip with you Jay! I've got access to a big diesel and big trailer! I'd bet $ to donuts that truck has more rust than shown. The pictures are of the outside rust. There is likely lots more hidden. But, body on frame is easy enough to fix!

SQRLPWR Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Thanks, but don't tempt me ...I've already got a slow moving project on the go LOL And I'm sure you're right about it. Case in point...I was talking to somebody about a '93 2 door XJ that popped up for sale last week. It looked pretty solid and was priced as such. When asked about the underneath and potential for rot, I got a reply "She all seems pretty solid to me." I tracked down the previous owner...here's what the same question brought "Well it was rough but I fixed it, but hard to pass safety because I used Diamond plate" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tracked down the previous owner...here's what the same question brought "Well it was rough but I fixed it, but hard to pass safety because I used Diamond plate" I got tons of parts to repair that Bronco, and when finished and a few tweaks it could be a fast moving project with that v8, your solid axle will bolt right in., and i have 2 working transmissions to fit and 2 transfercases .As for exterior rust around the wheels, front fenders are only $70 new, and rad supports are the same from 1980-1996, so it is not Hart to find one in good shape. Rear wheel arch patches only $25 a side, IV been watching that bronco, ha-ha even told Tracey to sell the grand am and it would be her new daily driver. She almost bit on it ....or maybe I'm dreaming.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerram Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 The eldorado is front wheel drive and probably has a 425 engine in it. I had a bit older eldorado with the 500 cubic inch engine and mine was rag top still front wheel drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sar4x4 Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Probably big axle shafts, no torque steer! And maybe equal length! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is definitely torque steer for about 5 feet until both front tires loose traction, then the steering wheel seems to float, front of car just seems to float, lots of smoke going by the doors and steering input is useless. Engine is still North South configuration, front outter CV shafts are the same side to side . there is an off set diff on the driver side and a long output shaft for the pass side, similar to an S10 front 4wd axle setup. Here is a transmission and front diff from an eldorado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if its for sale though Any chance you know who owns this? My friend owns a lifted j10 and might be interested in it for some spare parts. Here is a picture of his rig if anyone is interested, 1974 Jeep J10 with an AMC 360. Lifted a total of 12 inches sitting on 39s currently. He restored it all himself besides the paint.
