INCLUDED WITH PURCHASE
Original owners manual (pending), spare stock wheel & tire (off-size used Michelin XVS 195/70-14).
1 set ignition wires, alternator/water pump belt (Gates 7M975), timing belt, heater fan motor.
3 Sets of keys. Old set Michelin TRX tires (lotsa tread left).
Broomstick to hold up rear lift gate. 2 new hydraulic rear lift support struts.
I debated installing the new struts, but I didn't. My experiences
indicated it was better to let rear gate slam shut, cuz I initially had issues with it latching tight.
