Sadly my truck is going up for sale so I can finance a new home. I am the second owner it was formerly a member's truck in CO and if anyone recalls I had he(( getting the title due to the bastards in Kommunist Kalifornia DMV, the truck now has a clean TX title that I have IN HAND. Truck is mostly stock runs great I drove it down from CO when I bought it and I took it deer hunting between sweetwater and Abilene Approx. 300 miles each way. Never died on me and starts every time even in recent snow and ice storm. It does not burn or leak oil or anything else.
4x4 solid axle
4cylinder EFI
190,500 miles
4.10 gearing
5speed manual
tranny and transfer case shift great
Brand new MT Baja Claws 33x12.5x15 on black steel rims
blue and black waterproof seatcovers from ebay that look great
Sony CD player
4" lift springs of unknown etiology
black brush guard flimsy but gives illusion of ruggedness
passes inspection easily
Earl Scheib metallic blue (but can be any other color you can think of for like $300)
Truck has been great for me as a hunting rig and mild wheeler but also has great potential for a super flexy rig with the marlin or all pro kit which is what I was going to do with it, but I gotta do the responsible thing...... I guess.
As I said in cody's box, I'm looking at picking this truck up. Only real problem is it's in Lubbock so I can't check it out/drive it easily. Talked to the guy and he has family in Abilene, so we could meet there to check it out. But before I make that trip, I don't know **** about the older toys other than I like the way they look - so what am I looking for? Chris talked about some rust problem areas that I'm going to have the owner take pictures of to send me, but anything else?
Here's the pictures that he's sent me so far, some are older than others....
