97 XLT V8
hey all, i've had my 97 explorer for some time now, but last july or so it rolled on its side. Havent really driven it since, but to start it up every now and then. Minor body damage (thank god it rolled in some grass), but the left front driveline acts weird. There's a good shake in the steering wheel when i turn left. It needed new ball joints at the time so thats added to the bill. as it stands now the truck has 115k miles, is in damn good shape (besides the obvious), and never burns oil and runs great (engine wise). So what do u guys think? I've posted some ads to sell it for about $4500. Although i wonder if it'd be reasonable to fix it up? Whats everyones opinion here? what would u do?
 






If I were you I'd give it to me... :rolleyes:
 






$4500 for a rolled '97 is a bit high. Did you get an estimate to fix it all up?
 






well by rolled i mean it only went on its side. only damage is drivers side mirror, and driverside passenger door has some minor damage.

Btw, i failed to mention its fully loaded, sunroof, leather, kenwood mp3 cd/deck, infinity kappa speakers, etc.
