sdboltdude Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 http://sandiego.craigslist.org/ssd/rvs/4250423242.html San Diego Sunrader... I looked at this RV in October this guy runs a RV Junk yard says its for a relief fund for hungry children everything was junk!!!!nothing worth anything.... owner is very convinced he has #1 out of only 4 ever made sunrader 4x4 off of production line we all know that's not true and he thinks he will get the same money as the guy in San Francisco $25000 it is a nice find and in decent shape he is going to have to find that one person who can't live without this model.. Good luck buddy I told the guy he would be lucky to get $15000 to $18000 and I think that was way to high. I was just being nice & didn't want to bust his bubble.....

Derek up North Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Maybe #1 of 4 Turbo 4x4s produced in '86? But without a complete list of production numbers from Sunrader (which ain't going to happen), anyone can claim anything they want. Maybe some LED running lights would improve gas mileage though.

linda s Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I have seen way more than 4 turbo's and I quite certain way more than 26 Sunrader 4x4's. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayakthecoast Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Yeah I seriously doubt the often heard "only 4 Sunrader 4x4 turbos" ever built. I have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 I have to admit when Greg started this site he owned a turbo and he thought at the time there were only 2. Many more have surfaced over the years as these things became more desireable. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Is there any evidence that any of the 4x4s left the factory with anything other than the standard 4x4 6 bolt rear axle with single 15" wheels ? I know that some were converted to the 1-Ton 6 bolt axle as well as other mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 They left the factory with standard 6 bolt 4x4 rear axle but with fake 15 inch duallies in the back. Not single wheels. Linda S I do know of one 4x4 Sunrader that was converted to true 1 ton axle by Sunrader company. I believe it's the only one they ever did. The original owner lived in the Bay area near the Sunrader plant and insisted his new 1986 Sunrader had a full float axle. My friend Mike purchased it from the wife after he died.

Just in case someone on this site is bidding Linda S I did not spend allot of time looking at rv kind of wish I did knowing how rare it was now.. just peeking in not going inside the interior looks like what you see in pic ok condition needs some modernizing looks old but ok condition.. the only thing I question the GUY about is the 5 lug front wheels..(not sure if they make 6 lug 4x4) he said 5 lug is normal for this Sunrader. he is not one of the original owner's I don't think he is selling it as a RV Broker...but someone donated this Rv or he just got a good find.... seller sells a lot of Junk on Craigslist most of his stuff is just that junk. remember this came from a RV JUNK YARD not saying this is junk at all and looks like its maintained little rust and little oil/grease under truck not sure how long he owned it I would say he never drove it and just parked it and got it ready for quick sale. steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdboltdude Posted December 24, 2013 Author Share Posted December 24, 2013 just looked at front wheels in ebay pics they are 6 lug now.. rear 6 lugs dose not look like a 1ton full floater (flush hub) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 It's got 6 lugs front and rear, just not the 6 lug 1 Ton type. This is NOT a 1-Ton chassis, just a standard 4x4 chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linda s Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 If it's a factory turbo though it has the same axle as the later year V6 models. Heavier duty than the 4 banger but still not sure if it's enough. I have never seen a rear adapter like that before though. The pic from the outside makes the wheel look flush with the mounting plate but the pic from the rear doesn't look like the deep dish of a dually. It's something I would want to inspect in person if I was in the buying mood Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 I have never seen a rear adapter like that before though. The pic from the outside makes the wheel look flush with the mounting plate ... If you mean the rear Foolies, I've seen this before. Sticks in my memory because the very 'odd' (pun intended) arrangement of the 4x4 6 lug but then only 5 lugs attaching the Foolies together. I guess it was a Sunrader 'solution' since it was a 6 to 5 transition! I guess if you drive 'half fast', the 'half-assed' solution might work or another 30 years. If I was bidding and won, I think I'd buy it a set of 4-Runner alloy rims and install something like 235/70R15" tires on single rear rims. Regearing the axles, of course, to compensate for the larger tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek up North Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 No, it looks like he removed his reserve and it actually sold. But if you're serious, there's nothing to lose sending him a message with an offer in case the sale falls through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
