I bought this about three months ago when I started pulling apart my subaru.
The specs are: 2000 Dodge Dakota club cab, 4.7L V8, 12X,000 miles, working 4x4, tow hitch (not sure if its a complete towing package), clean title, working AC and cruise.
So far I’ve done:
alignment, ($100)
steering shaft ($200)
Tires ($700)
2 wheel bearings ($450)
4x4 drive shaft rebuild @ fleet pride ($120)
Problems:
-Fading paint,
-spots of ugly surface rust which have not eaten through yet,
-sticky lifter/valve which doesn’t seem to affect performance. I’ve changed the oil 3 times now with different oil cleaners which haven’t helped at all.
-CEL for EVAP on. This might be as simple as a VAC leak. I couldn’t find any cracks in the filler tube, gas cap, gas tank etc.
in this condition the blue book comes up as $4,165
I am asking $4,000. Anything less than that and I’m loosing way too much money on it and I might as well keep it at least for the winter.
Reason for selling: Other than the fact I own 5 cars… I just sold the axis block from the blue subaru and the motor turned out to be junk. I need to refund some money.
common evap prob on these trucks is the l,d,p or leak detection pump cheap fix .these trucks run good and it bein a 5 sp its a lot better than a auto good luck wit sale
