Up for sale is an 1989 Honda Pilot FL400. I bought this back in 1996 for my wife. I stripped it down to the frame for a full rebuild in 2006. The following is a description of what was done:
Powder Coated Red: Frame and roll cage
Powder Coated Black: Front spindles, backing plates, hubs/drums, steering column, steering wheel, coil/CDI (Capacitor Discharge Ignition) bracket, net brackets, battery box, driven pulley, rear knuckles, rear caliper/bracket, seat pan, skid plate, rear hubs, and the fender brackets.
Powder Coated Blue: All four shock springs.
Chrome Plated: Front upper and lower a-arms, rear upper a-arms, all 6 rear links,
Engine brackets, rear shock brackets and other miscellaneous pieces.
Front Suspension: Aftermarket (ATV Racing) adjustable chrome moly upper a-arms, new bushings/seals, tie rods, tie rod ends, ball joints, wheel bearings and seals.
Rear Suspension: Aftermarket (ATV Racing) adjustable chrome moly lower links and radius arms, new bushings/seals, ball joints, CV axle boots, gearbox/axle seals, wheel bearings and seals.
Brakes: Aftermarket (EBC) rotor, new pads & shoes, aftermarket (Galfer) steel braided lines front/rear, rebuilt front/rear master cylinders.
Engine: All stock other than a K&N air filter, Outerwear pre-filter and an ATV Racing ceramic coated pipe/silencer, new fuel pump and filter.
New Douglas Red Label .190 wheels. The rear tires are a special cut that Daryl Smith Sand Tires came up with for pilots.
90% of the hardware has been replaced with stainless steel.
There is quite a few others bits and pieces that I replaced during the rebuild. I have a binder with over $4000 in receipts just for parts. It has never let us down and is very reliable. We have never used it in rocky or wet conditions. It's only been used in the sand and stored in our garage so it is super clean. Other than the foot tub, all of the bodywork is original. For its age the rest of the bodywork is in good condition. Included with the sale are the stock parts, some spare parts, owner's manual, service manual and the stock wheels with some all-terrain tires on them. I have the title and the registration is good until June 2014. I'm located in North San Diego County. Price is $7,000
