I don't see any rust from the pictures. It looks better than expected for something that old around here.







Good shape new rebuilt transmission less than a thousand miles on rebuilt new rack and pinion steering new ball joints upper and lower new tie rods new clutch fan new shocks front and back new front drive shaft new u-joints rear drive shaft every part less than a thousands miles new plug wires and plugs new coil new cap and rotor engine runs good AWD 3 row seats tires in good shape asking 8700.00 or best offer

It has had a lot of maintenance done to it recently, so that is either a good thing for the future buyer, or a bad omen that it may need even more work.

Pretty clean for being 23 years old.

What is the mileage on it? It's all regular wear and tear stuff repaired so there is a lot of life left in it.

But, "a thousand miles" on a rebuilt transmission and the vehicle being put up for sale right away means only one thing to Me: the rebuild wasn't done right and there's still a problem

Have another 46RE lined up for whoever buys it.

Nice rig. 8700 is dreaming though.
First thing is those headlights gotta go. They suck far worse than the originals, and thats saying something.
Not a fan of the wheels, but the 6 lug really narrows the field.

The Durangos seemed to have many worse electrical issues that made people dump them. I'd do a thorough test drive first thing.

AWD? I bet that thing gets single digit mileage. I wouldn't want to feed that pig till the snows 2 feet deep!

$8,700 is dreaming. As noted, anyone who knows anything would have to replace those garbage Chinese headlamps 1st thing. They have the rare ability to blind everyone in front of you while preventing you from actually seeing anything. The wheels are hideous. Seats look fairly worn too. Rest of it looks like it's in nice shape though.

Here is a red one. https://chicago.craigslist.org/sox/cto/d/alsip-2002-dodge-durango-t/7802136274.html

I think its 2wd. If so, it might get 14 hwy, which is still pretty thirsty.

The red one seems in better shape, but either way I'd want to inspect closely. These also had some rust issues that killed em early. Not Volare tier, but pretty bad.

Until I see what the frame looks like under the truck, I'm not believing anything I see standing and looking at it, and I'm sure not taking pictures as a true vision of it.

I see the the ad copy mentions AWD.
I would need to check the VIN and glovebox sticker to confirm the 5.9 though.
If its a non R/T it may have been death flashed, and that killed MPG.
