    Personally, with both CV boots split and the other few issues, I think $7500 is too much. Its not bad, but I would rather spend that kinda money on a slightly lower mileage VX with NO MODS. Personally (and I broke my own rule with my Trooper) I would stay away from pre-modded vehicles simply because you don't really know what was done.

    With $8000 to spend, and a little patience and willingness to travel, I bet you could find a real peach of a VX for that kinda money.

    All that said, if you do take the plunge on this VX, I would say you should know that doing the CV boots yourself is doable, but very messy and a little time consuming. If you decide to take it somewhere to get the boots fixed, get ready to pay.

    Otherwise, this VX does look nice! Good luck.

    ok youve got me seriously looking at another

    there is another that caught my eye but im to far to check it out.
    it has higher miles but supposedly been very well taken care of and all stock, so since I read all the time that fellow members will help out and go check for others.
    I am calling on someone in the victorville, ca. area to assist. 99 ironman vin 0464

    I think you are making a wise choice, just make sure all the options are explored and then decide. I'm not saying all pre-modded vehicles are bad, but it does mean that you will never know exactly what was done and what the quality of the work was like.

    Keep us posted!
