I’m unloading two of my three to hopefully make room for a 40. I haven’t had this one long and will do the best I can to describe what I do know. It’s not the prettiest thing ever and the engine knocks, but the engine still has full power and Texas rust free.
I pulled it off a ranch west of Fort Worth where it lived for all 12 years the previous owners had it. I had it inspected and serviced at the Landcruiser specialist in Austin, TX. The interior is rough w/266k on the odometer. This is an ideal ranch truck, mudder/crawler, or even parts.
The good:
Rust free
OEM electronic lockers
New radiator, windshield, & peske heater valve
35’s (including a not pictured 35” spare)
Winch
Button to lock differential electronically
3rd row seats are in great shape
Custom rear tire carrier
The green light around the “D” lights up
That’s it....
The bad:
Knocking engine (still full power)
Air bag light comes off and on
Exterior poor paint/body work
Some parts don’t match
Front seats are both obliterated (new seat covers)
Middle seats are rough
Steering wheel is rough shape (new cheap cover)
Rear door power locks don’t work
Again, this is a ranch truck, I’m sure there are a lot more things wrong that I’m missing. I haven’t had it long and haven’t done much with it.
Feel free to ask questions and I’ll do the best I can. Thought I’d offer it up to the ihatemud community before trying to clean it up (a little) for the general public at a a higher price.
