7-1/2 Quarts of Royal Purple Synchromax Synthetic ATF Automatic transmission gear oil with Synerlec. Again, I'll be brutally (embarrassingly) honest with this: I bought these for my brand-new Marlin Crawler rebuilt W56A-HD transmission I installed in my truck in June. All I thought was "Synchro"s and I bought them and started pouring them into my drivetrain. I first thought.... "Man, this Royal Purple is reeeeeaaaaaaalllllllllllyyyy thin for gear oil. Then WEAKLINK and freds40, who were with me at the time, saw what I was doing and clued me in on the fact that I was putting ATF fluid into my manual transmission. So I simply pulled the drain plug and drained allllllll the fluid out and poured them back into the bottles. While draining the fluid out, I accidentally over filled and lost 1/2 a quart (it spilled all over the ground!). Anyways, yes, I was pretty disappointed and generally pissed off from this one :thud:
So these are brand new quarts of Royal Purple Synthetic ATF oil that were poured into a new clean transmission and then immediately drained and returned right back into their containers. I GUARANTEE no metal, no brass, no aluminum exists in this oil. It is just as clean as it was when it came out. There are 7-1/2 quarts here, and they were $9.50 my cost each. So let's go about $7 each and I'll throw in the 1/2 quart for free. So let's go with $50 takes them all. Not a bad deal if you are looking to service your auto with some high quality synthetic oil. :thumbs:



SOLD! Thank you! These are Rubicon Express axle shims. I ran these on my rear axle a while back. They have sat in my garage since 2004. They are 5" long by 2.5" wide by 3/4" tall, which by my calculations makes them an 8-degree shim. $15 for the pair :thumbs:



SOLD! Thank you! These are 14"-stroke 5125 Bilstein shocks in used condition. They were ran on a V6 4Runner for 1 summer and then removed and have been sitting in blane525's garage for about a year. I now have them and would like $75 for the pair. I have compressed both of them by hand and they feel smooth and rebound as normal. I would run them on my truck, but I am looking for 12s. I will definitely trade straight across for 12s!



SOLD! Thank you! Marlin Crawler front axle 1984-85 U-Bolt flip kit. Includes everything required: (1) round short Ubolt, (1) round long Ubolt, (2) square long ubolts, (8 ) nuts, (8 ) washers, and (2) plates. They have many miles on them as I've used them since 2004. They have been to the Hammers numerous times, Rubicon at least a dozen times, Dusy-Ershim twice, Panamint Valley three times, Coyote, Red, Bald, etc. They worked great and were removed in great working condition :thumbs: Let's go $20 for the set.



This is a passenger's side rear lens complete from a Toyota T100. I believe it was a 1993 or a 1994. Genuine Toyota of course! Please make me an offer on this!




This is an Edelbrock intake manifold for a Datsun L-series 4-cylinder engine, such as the L13, L16, L18, L20B. I really don't know much about this. Marlin found it while cleaning out some stuff at the shop. He bought it and hand ported it to match the intake gasket. It also includes a small riser plate. If you know of anyone with an older Datsun 510 or a 1200 or the like, please show them this. Also if you happen to be a member of a Datsun forum, post a link to this for me! We don't know what this is worth, so let's start with $50 O.B.O. Thanks!
