new owner in NC

[Mike1072]

Hello everyone,
Just purchased a 1989 GW which is in between a fixer upper and driver. Runs and drives, with a fresh tranny rebuild. Needs some quarter repair but NO frame rust. It simply needs a lot of little things, but I'm not sure where to start! I would appreciate ANY advice or a 'punch' list of things I should do to make this vehicle road ready... some things I was thinking:
basic tune up plugs/wires/ALL filters/ etc
brakes - all
rubber hoses/belts
shocks
lubricate - where should I start? Like every hinge/window.etc

Any advice would be appreciated, thank you!

Welcome to the madness yes those are all a good start for sure as you get to know the "condition" of your rig. I would change ALL the fluids and filters.....and like you said ALL the rubber hoses - even under the rig (trans/cooler) what kind of mechanic skill sets do you have + tools?

this will help us in pointing you to repairs to keep her/him in daily driver condition.

perhaps a good local mom and pop 4WD store can put it up on the lift and check out ball joints, tie rods, u joints steering slop?

BTW....you will never get 25 MPG out of it so dont even ask ... LOL
