look for rust. not just rust but cancer. it causes any and all mods to take 2X the time due to its nature to completely ruin your motivation and the torque in your elbows. second look for something that is clean and fairly dent free. you don't want something for 4k that someone has already rode hard and put away leaking. and C look for typical issues to get a good idea what your in for ie. universal joints front and d/s, tie rod ends, leaking seals and gaskets, wheel hubs and bushings. final thought...
