I posted about this (my second Rodeo in Isuzu Talk a few days ago, I went and bought it today.

Info:1996 Isuzu Rodeo 4x4 3.2 V6 Auto 140k miles.
Identical to my 1996 except for being automatic.
She was asking $1900, and I could only talk her down to $1500, though it kelly blue booked in the upper $2000's.


The Problems:
The front shocks are shot. They're getting replaced with Monroe GasMatic's ($22 each)

The brake pads are bad, they need replaced asap and shouldnt be any trouble.

The doors wont lock. I had someone sit in the car and try to lock it while I tried to open the doors. No dice, the locks arent locking the doors... Where do I start to solve this problem?

The back doors dont open. I remember seeing a "How To" on freeing the back doors around here somewhere, ill have to print it out because I got the handle unscrewed, the light poped out, the handle plate off and the window switch poped out and was lost from there.

The rear glass hatch doesnt lock. I messed around with the position of the metal latch and got it a little better, but no lock. Maybe the mechanism is warn out?

The front outer CV Boots need replaced. Ive done this before to my current Rodeo and ill just pick up some split boot kits.

Front bumber needs replaced. The lady hit a small pole and pushed it in. Didnt affect anything behond that. She says you can get them cheap on ebay.

Thats all the problems I can think of for now. Motor and trans run strong, nice body and not alot of rust under the truck. Any help/ideas/words of wisdom on any of this would be greatly appreciated! This is a vehicle for my mom because she wants 4 wheel drive for the snow, so getting this stuff repaired asap is a must, and ill be doing it all myself.
