Title: Is this a good deal??? Help please
Post by: Mac500r on July 17, 2007, 09:19:39 AM

I found a wrecked 1998 sidekick  sport with 120,000 miles on it. I want the third members  out of it for my 1996 lifted 2 door.Will the 5.12's work well with a three speed auto and 31-32  inch tires? Also is $300 a fair price  for the both of them.He guarantees them to be good! Thanks

sounds like a good deal to me ...

the sport should have the 1.8l engine to boot!

and yes, 5.12's behind a 3spd auto are perfect (even gets the speedo back to normal with 31's)

It has the 1.8 dohc engine with a 5spd but the front of the engine is smashed.I am just buying the third members for $300.

Thanks for the reply!

smashed how? ...

if the block, head and intake are ok, then you could strip the 3rds and probably make money to someone who has a sammy looming for a transplant (especially if you have the entire rig with harness/ecu) ...
