I just took ownership of this truck a couple of weeks ago. It needs some TLC but otherwise still has plenty of life left on it. 140k miles. For better or for worse, it had the transmission replaced 5k miles ago with a Toyota remanufactured unit.
I'm planning it to get to a baseline I'm happy with for it's next stage of life:
- paint correction & vinyl wrap (the clear coat has seen better days)
- replacing all fluids (oil, transfer, diffs, coolant, brakes)
- replacing wheels and tires
- suspension refurb (might need to rebuild the bp-51s)
- new winch line (already installed)
- upgraded offroad lights
Will try to continue the story here.
