i dont see the issue, it was purchased by said ebay seller to part out in the first place, he mentions that it is by no means perfect, and is selling it as non-perfect.
Most likely it was a 2wd that was converted to 4wd with leafs, or someone that wanted to lift it an for some dumb reason thought leafs were a better option.
Yeah its beat all to hell, but its not like he said it was show quality...
now, his asking price, is a bit rediculas, but other than that, I dont understand the gripe.
