I think thats it haha might be missing something. Will update the ad if I think of more.

Building a house and could free up some moolah.

I have a buddy interested in the shocks and Carli TSB so if I decide to part out, he has dibs on those. Depending what happens with the house, might keep the bumpers and shell for the next truck. But if I can come to an agreement with a buyer, will sell as-is.

As most vehicles on here, the truck was built to be USED. It has Arizona pin stripes, a couple dings, one of the window vent visors is cracked, little stuff like that. It's a truck, not a pavement princess. Needs a clock spring. Broke it while changing gear box, forgot to strap the steering wheel in place and it spun on me. Needs alignment. The 2.65s could use a revalve. After going to long arms, the valving isn't perfect- needs more rebound, bottom out resistance isn't where it could be in the front end. But with that being said, the truck rides like NO short arm truck out there on the road and in the small stuff.

$29K OBO. The only trades I would be open to would be a 3rd or 4th gen 4Runner plus cash or a WJ or WK plus cash. V8 and 4x4 wanted for both the 4runner and Jeeps. Or mayyybe a nice LC and cash.

Thanks for looking!
Brandon

Best of luck, your build is pretty close to my shopping list. Few minor differences, but not much.

I am not going to go with another diesel for a while but I did want to say that this looks like a great truck! I sold my 03 quad cab Ram diesel this past august and I have been regretting it ever since. I just needed a bigger backseat for the 2 rear facing car seats.

Anyway, hell of a truck and good luck with the sale
