Here is the original thread when I bought the truck:
http://www.competitiondiesel.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22794

Since it has new tires on it, rhino liner on the rockers, new rear brakes, bearings on 1 side in rear, new fluid in rear diff, FASS 150/150, new front cover gasket and crank seal, trac bar, ball joint on driver side, steering arm, tie rod end, 150 HP sticks, boost fooler, brake line, brand new 5" exhaust system with muffler, new poly cog belt, SO pump off of TJ's truck ;), stelth cover.

This is all I can remember at this point it currently has 250,000 on it highway miles it is a 53 block, many of members on here have seen it/ rode in it good driving truck runs well the only problem with this truck is sometimes it will kick out of fifth gear Weston (Smokem) thinks mabey countershaft bearing in the tranny I did not plan on fixing it cause it drives fine and I dont even pay attention to it, it does not grind or anything of this sort just funny when riding 3 deep and it kicks out and hits someone in the leg LOL.

The main reason for the sale is that I might have fallen into a good buy on a 12V so due to my build on my 97' pullin rig funds will not allow me to have 3 trucks right now..... IMO I just got this truck to where u can go drive it and not worry about something falling off or it breaking down on you it pulls anything u can throw at it with ease!

I figure $6,500 would be fair considering all the work I have put into this truck and I am not here to jew anyone hence why I posted my thread where I bought it so everyone can see what I paid when I bought the truck. Like I said I wanted to get the word out their so I can see if any one would be interested in a good runnin 24V incase I get this other pick-up.

The reason it kicks out of gear is because the backcut angle on the fifth gear synchro cone teeth are getting worn flat from 250,000 miles. It is a easy $100 or so fix. Just remove rear tailshaft housing and snap ring holding synchro cone on and replace with a new one. The backcut angle holds the synchros connected. Just in case any body wanted to know and is interested in this truck.
