Very nice find.

 

[TJ96TLC]

I had been looking for a while. Low mileage was a must.

That is hideous, I can get rid of it for you if needed. Great find!!!!

not often Im jealous of an '88 BUT DAM!!!

front and rear locker and those tires aired down to about 16psi (what I ran my 33's at) and that will go anywhere!!

good buy!

 

[TJ96TLC]

Thanks!! PO sent the thirds to Marlin Crawler for the setups. It is seriously strong with the gears. The rear locker is awesome, pretty quite. I locked the front the other day on a trail and it tightens up the steering, probably will only use 4WD when absolutely necessary.

Beautiful truck, great find!
Was it local? If so it must have been garaged its whole life!

 

[TJ96TLC]

It was in Knoxville, TN, so about 2.5 hrs from me. According to PO, garaged until 2007ish, then driven for a couple years then bought by the guy I got it from. The paint is oxidized so it needs constant attention. But then again its red and 24 years old.

I was just looking at your gearing thread. I can see why you switched! That's a beauty!

 

[TJ96TLC]

Yea, I like it... My 4runner is going up for sale soon.

 

[Fireman]

[TJ96TLC]

I wish...I just put it in 4wd on a trail. Its the stock case.
