As much as I hate too its time to let this truck go. I built this truck a couple of years ago. It was driven for about a year…and then life changed and its been sitting in the driveway since. Like all projects it needs a few things to finish it to my satisfaction. I’ve done a little here and there as work and life allowed. I had planned on getting back on it when I had a chance. A while back I decided it was time to finish it up so I started ordering the parts I needed. One Saturday morning I went out planning to start working on it. I looked at it, ooked over at the tubed, uilt, nd finished 4runner sitting beside it, hought about the samauri that I have most of the parts to build but haven’t started, nd decided I would rather go fishing. I have no interest in finishing this and I never will. I would rather pass it on to someone else that can enjoy it while its still in good shape and doesn’t need much. I’ve tried to list everything as best I remember, ut I’ve spent so much money on this truck and done so much I know there is stuff I’m forgetting. It fires up and runs good. As far as I know there are no problems that exist right now. Every month or two I’ve started it and driven it around the yard to keep things freed up. As I’ve found stuff that needed repair I’ve done it to try and keep the truck from going down hill. I do know the rotors are rusted and would probably change the brake pads very shortly just to be safe. The a/c works but has a bad leak under the dash so it will not hold a charge more than a few hours. I was planning on replacing the front springs with Rancho rs44044 springs. Knowing I was going to have to get longer shocks I took the ones off this truck and used them on another project. So you will need to get front shocks. The body is in good shape. No dents that I see and no rust showing. I painted it when I built it, ut sitting in the Georgia sun has not been kind to the clear coat (later found this brand is known for turning loose). This last summer it has started to delaminate. The cage is made out of 1 ½” .120 wall. It is removable and powder coated. When I put the engine in I swapped out the entire wiring harness. I put all the Tacoma gauges, ash, teering column, eats, eatbelts. If you wanted to you could even hook up the airbags. The truck has power windows. The wiring is there for power locks but they are not currently hooked up. The cowl panel and fuel door are not on the truck but I have them and they are painted.86 extended cabregular cab chassis bobbed for bed lengthbed bobbed 5” in the front, 5” rear, ” pie cut behind the rear wheel wellshorse shoe cross member relocatedfor cab and fuel tank clearance96 Tacoma dash/steering column/interior/wiring harness96 Tacoma 3rz-fe 2.7obx stainless headermarlin crawler clutchmarlin crawler rotated doublermarlin crawler twin stick shifternew fuel pumpnew fuel tanknew radiatornew oem o2 sensorsnew oem crank sensornew maf sensornew coilnew plugs/wires/cap/rotornew asin clutch master and slave cylindernew oem chrome trim for the windshield (not installed)gm master cylinderCooper sst 37x12x17 tires with about 70-75% tread h2 hummer wheelsBilsteine rear shocksToyota catalytic converter (not installed)Carolina drivelines high angle rear drive shaftDeaton fab driveline parking brakeSky mfg offset shackles (not installed)Trail gear transfer case mount (not installed)Sky mfg GM to Toyota master cyl adapter (not installed)Transmission to engine braces from 2wd truck modified to fit 4wd application.Wagoner front springs52” Chevy ½ ton rear springs

There is some stuff that I could do better now and a few things I would do differently.But this isn’t a back yard, iy, o experience build.I work in a high line body shop and repair cars for a living.There is absolutely nothing on this truck that I would be emberassed to admit was my work. It’s clean and its not hacked. This is a no reserve auction. So if you bid its yours. Since it doesn’t have front shocks currently it will need to be trailered. I will not ship. Between my work schedule, y house being inaccessible for a car carrier(one lane curvy road), nd shippers not showing up when they are scheduled to, hipping is not really possible.
