I bought the truck out of Denver 11/2016. Since then, the truck has undergone extensive restoration and upgrades, including:

  • VIN: SALLDHMB8FA392545


  • 200 Tdi Conversion with remanufactured engine. ~2,000 miles on the new odometer. Work performed by Defenders Northwest in Gig Harbor, WA. Starts right up, runs great, and is a dependable daily driver.

  • Upgraded to new 285/75/16 BF Goodrich AT KO2 tires x5, still in like-new condition
  • New custom front bull bar bumper

  • New Tuffy Box locking security console installed between front seats
  • New seatbelts front and middle rows. Cargo area seats and seatbelts have been removed for utility storage, but I have them and they can go back in easily. Rear cargo/sleeping platform with Bedrug and underneath storage currently in the cargo area.
  • New dashboard to match the center console and seat covers
  • New Knightsbridge Overland seat covers front and rear seats
  • Old carpet removed and replace with new carpet kit from Rovers North, after applying acoustic/heat insulation (Dynamat Extreme)
  • New rubber floor mats front and rear
