1988 4x4 Used 5.9L V8 16V Automatic 4WD

Description

When looking for a distinctive vintage truck, it's hard to beat this 1988 Jeep J10. Aside from rarity, you get a tough 4x4 pickup that's ready for work duty. And when you see all the features - from the rebuilt transmission to the A/C interior - you realize this checks all your boxes, including an affordable price. This is the end of a prestigious line. After all, the Gladiator/J-Series had spent over a quarter-century being the Jeep of trucks. But because Chrysler had now taken the reigns at Jeep, the full-sized pickup was dwindled down to not compete with the Ram. So there were only about 1,000 produced during 1988 - it's final year. And you'll love this truck for more than just rarity. There was a more recent investment in Root Beer paint, and this metallic brown has a nice shine when it's outdoors. And in fact, this classic is still meant to lead a useful truck life. The tall 4x4 stance, large trailering mirrors, rear step bumper w/tow available, and liner paint in the bed all mean this one is ready for everything from a hardware store run to a camping trip amongst the stars. These trucks shared their interiors with the Grand Wagoneers, and so it's a quite comfortable place to spend some time. That means a stylish dash with wood paneling, and it's so wide that the glovebox is in the middle. You get comfortable features like a plush bench, tilt steering column, cruise control, and an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo with Bluetooth connection. The classic style means you can open the side vent windows and slide the rear glass to get the old-school truck breezes we all love. And thanks to ice-cold factory air conditioning, you can do this all year long. The Jeep/AMC 360 cubic-inch V8 has been a long-standing powerhouse utilized by some legendary vehicles. The consignor states this is the original motor to the vehicles, and that it was rebuilt around 20,000 miles ago. It looks like this is true just by the quality of the presentation, and the way this fuel-injected motor fires up. Plus, this V8 is mated to a Torqueflite A727 three-speed automatic transmission that was rebuilt in April 2018. That's the kind of stout setup you want for off-road work. It only gets better with the proper two-speed 4x4 transfer case, four-inch lifted suspension, tough Dana 30 axles at both ends, and Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ tires. But even if you just stay on the pavement, the power steering and front disc brakes make this truck a fine anytime choice. Rare, powerful, and filled with the right features, this is the classic Jeep offered for quite a nice price. So if you love a distinctive pickup, don't let this one slip away. Call today!!!
