- Puma Compressor with an Inline fuse holes and the custom mounting brackets for rear fender well. $200

The Bad:
- Power seats are a mess operationally. Drivers side works pretty well. Passenger side gear is bad. Both reasonably easy to fix.
- I bought new calipers and pads as one was squeaking. When I was putting them on, I realized the old pads were still good. More investigation and I discovered the bottom bolt on both calipers was stripped, and the loose caliper was causing the brake squeal. I wasn't sure if I should go HeliCoil or JBweld... or what... so it sits needing that figured out and then brakes being bled.
- AC is good and cold until true AZ heat kicks in! It’s a big cabin… will not cool it!
- Head unit is great, speakers are either unplugged, not in, or sound like crap.
- Big Power steering leak from rotted line
- The Belt will squeal on a cold start. I believe it is power steering oil on pulley
- Power Sunroof works great but interior plastic trim is sun rotted and cracked badly
- Passenger front fender well off but still have

Easily passed emissions when I purchased, no engine lights on.

So, 15 K into it, driven less than 3 k miles... 8.5K will take it. As soon as I get access to Pirate 4x4 again, I'll be posting it for sale there.

$8,500
