Sold/Expired 30' RV

got a Jayco popup I will trade

PM sent.

FYI: We bought it for wheeling when we only had one rig since the wife was sick of sleeping on the ground. We now have 2 rigs, a tow rig/trailer and usually wheel with our good friends who have 2 rigs of their own (AKA no other drivers to drive it) thus the push for a pop-up or cash. This thing makes a great home base while wheeling and it's old enough not to worry about getting it muddy! We re-did the entry removing the carpet and put in vinyl for just this reason. Lot's of storage for parts, smaller air compressor and the 6500 watt generator will run welders and air compressors. Of course it has a hitch for towing your rig.

I pull my XJ behind my 90 F350 Crew Cab Dually longbed which ironically has the same 460 but is EFI. RV has an Edelbrock 1411 carb which is a 750 cfm I believe. So long story short I've never towed with it but I think it would be OK. TJ's only being around $4500 lbs I think it would pull with little notice but probably not a speed demon up hills.

The RV does have some decent drive train items to assist towing like:
- Hydroboost braking setup
- Huge disk calipers front/rear
- The RV is not here for me to cross reference the chassis and casting numbers to see if it's a Dana 70 or 80 but according to the manual:
- If it's a Dana 70 no less than 4.56 and possibly 4.88 gears.
- If it's a Dana 80 no less than 4.63 and possibly 5.12 gears.
- Transmission cooler
- Oil Cooler

Hope that helps.

I need to mention we're getting a lot of interest from Craigslist including a local dealer already offering site unseen to put a deposit down and purchase it. Being sold below NADA value this is not a surprise. Since we're wheeling this weekend and the wife being out of town all next week we decided to setup an open house for next Saturday 3/13/2010 from 2-5 where we store it to accommodate all of this interest. We do want to give fellow wheelers first dibs on it before then. So if anyone is interested I can follow up with you. I have a few fellow wheelers interested.
