The bad, or things that needs some love
·The truck has been siting almost the full year that I’ve had it, so it my need some fine tuning
·The Fi-Tech EFI is great, however, I have heard that the fuel pump Command Center may get hot. Some guy’s recommend replacing with an inline pump, I’ve never had a problem but haven’t driven more than the 10 miles to and from work once a week.
·The truck gearing seems real low, on the freeway, which I’ve only driven a few times, the truck hits 4500 RPMs at 65 MPH. Re-Gearing may be needed if you plan to drive at high speeds.
·The truck will easily pass a tailpipe test, however, may fail a visual because it has fuel injection and no smog pump. Id prefer to sell outside of California where the truck is smoged based on Federal Emissions Standards.
·Leaks, the truck has a small leak on the transfer case, appears to be a front seal, maybe a drop or two ever couple weeks.
·The front and main seal of the oil pan or somewhere in that area have small leaks, maybe a couple drops every couple weeks. My driveway is clean concrete and rarely has a couple drops of oil on it. I can send pictures to show how tiny the drops are, they usually only appear after weeks of sitting.
·Some rust, mostly just small spots in the usually areas.
·The paint is a cheap paint jub done by the Previous Owner, some over spray, chips and some rust spots. I’d love to re paint it if I had the money, but overall the body is straight.
So, if I kept the truck I might re-gear it and look into a different style fuel pump and that is if I had problems. Just being honest with you guy’s because I love this dang truck.
