Arrow OME Land Cruiser LC40 Suspension & Lockers...

So I did a booboo and unknowingly placed an order while trying to get a quote for a customer. This customer is now long gone to Venezuela and now I have a FULL suspension , Front & Rear lockers, Compressor, and PumpUp kit for an LC 40 (things that I dont normally stock) layin in my warehouse. I don't want to be a pain in ARBs butt(we have real good relations with them) or pay restocking fees. The customer had a 91 LC40 but most of these parts will fit several years and series' of LCs.

Here's what I got...

x2 CS001F - TOY LC 40 FRONT (OME13)

x2 D3XL - DAKAR XL LEAF (13XL)

x2 N41 - SHOCK (MULTI APPLICATION)

x2 CS001R - TOY LC 40 REAR (OME14)

x2 N76 - SHOCK TOYOTA 75 SER. REAR

x2 OMEB11 - BUSH CONV. 19MM>16MM ID.

x1 OMEGS2 - FRNT 70,60,40 SHACKLE

x1 OMEGS1 - REAR 70,60,40 SHACKLE

x2 OMEGP1 - GREASABLE PIN AND PLATE

x1 OMESD23 - DAMPER L/C 40,45,55

x7 OMEU59A - OME U-BOLT

x1 OMEU55 - OME U-BOLT

x4 OMESB1 - TOY LC SPRING BUSH1

x2 RD33 - LANDCRUISER 1990+ S/N:06010632,06010631

x4 160116 - BEARING 32010X/32010X

x1 RDCKA - 12 VOLT COMPRESSOR

x1 PUKT - PUMP UP KIT FOR RDCKA


These are all BRAND SPANKIN new STILL in un-opened boxes seling for a TINY bit less than retail prices.

Location: Miami, FL. Willing to ship!

Please contact me ONLY of you're seriously interested or if you know someone SERIOUSLY interested!

786-280-0119 is my cell.

Next best way of getting a hold of me would be via email to: 01001010@bellsouth.net with ATTN: JC on the subject line

what is a LC40? do you mean a FJ40 Landcruiser? if so, why do you say that the customer had a 1991 LC40? There is no such thing as a 1991 FJ40 Landcruiser...

also, no offense intended for the seller - but to all buyers

BUYERS BEWARE!!!

make sure this newbie has the parts for sale in hand and has a good reputation for shipping things that are paid for. i'd hate for this to be a scammer and see people here get burned.

doing a quick google for the binary bit that he used for a user name cross referenced with "land rover" came up with the same user name for a moderator at

http://www.landroversonly.com/forums/member.php?u=1712

their info is:
Date of Birth: December 6, 1986
Age: 19
Biography: Born in Panama City, Panama. Raised and still living in Miami, FL
Location: Miami, FL
Interests: Bluewater Hunting, any kind of driving, building/repairing things
Occupation: Part Time Truck/Auto Accessories sales @ cousin's shop,Part Time Web Designer

for peace of mind, you may want to contact this person at the LR forum directly thru that email to check and see if they're legit and to make sure that the person that signed up here isn't an imposter that just copied th LR moderators info to use as a cover to run a scam...

and someone on an acura forum

and someone on cardomain

and a florida land rover club member

andy,

thanks for checking this ad out. agreed and no offense to the seller, but alot of things don't add up.

and to all members: in the past, we've had a few newbie members selling things and then not follow up on the sale.

bob

If he had a really good rep. with ARB he could return the parts with little or no restocking fee.

i don't think the person who posted this is the same guy as the rover moderator...

i know, but you found someone who is a legit moderator at a rover forum on which this exact ad was posted with the same contact info, correct?

so if it was a scam, wouldnt he have used different contact info so theyd contact him and not the real, legit mod?

Its a bit more complicated than that. My boss doesnt exactly know I placed an order for this. I only called in for a quote. I guess I said "yeah I'd like to place an order" or something like that. The customer left, and a week later, a palete shows up with a full suspension and lockers. My boss made it sound like ARBs fault and I INSTANTLY got online, on the forums to see if I can get rid of it! I can assure you though, this isn't a scam or anything. I said I didnt want to be a pain in ARBs Butt because it would mean my boss callin mike and yelling at him. I'm also trying to sell them because I've been screwin up a lot lately here at the shop. Not becuase im not a good worker or anything, ive just had a REALLY full plate lately. Selling this would compensate for a little bit of it I hope. Please help a fellow off-roader out guys! I wouldnt have posted my cell if I was tryin to scam. I dont know how much info you could pull up with my cell number, but again, NOT A SCAM.

Thanks for considering!

MUD would be your best bet, but you'll probably have to unload them at cost to move them fast. selling them "slightly below retail" won't get you anywhere on the net.

lee.... i never said that i verified his contact info. i only stated that this guy here had the same SIG as the guy on the rover forum. anybody could copy that info and start a new account here trying to impersonate him and use his reputation to sell stuff.

i never said it was a scam. i said to be careful cause it was fishy the way it was listed. i also said that any potential buyers should contact the moderator at the rover forum to see if it was indeed them selling the stuff. you have to sign up to contact members, so i didn't bother. that's why i couldn't verify that it was the same contact info...

:pat:
