    I have been looking for a trail rig as of late and came across this ad. I dont know too much about trail rigs or set ups, just want something thats decent, prefer to keep it a yota, and will be able to do some good rock crawling.

    The ad:

    85 Toyota pickup, lockers, 37s
    -125k
    -new top end on motor
    -new clutch, and slave cylinder
    -rebuilt front axle, six shooter knuckles, arp studs, longfield axle shafts, lockrite locker, v6 carrier, 2" wheel spacers, TG diff armor, TG extended brake lines
    -welded rear, 4.10 gears front and rear, ifs rear, TG extended brake lines
    -63" chevy rear springs
    -Rear yota springs up front
    -TG sliders
    -Tube, all-pro style bed
    -HD long travel front driveshaft
    -HD rear Driveshaft
    -procomp MX6 adjustable rear shocks
    -rancho 5k front shocks
    - TG high steer
    -TG dual transfer cases, nice crawl ratio
    -perfect frame, no flaws, no thin spots, NO RUST
    -eclipse head unit, usb port, infinity speakers
    -working ac that just needs charged, I had to replace 1 hose, never recharged after old hose blew
    - Volvo bucket seats
    -75% goodyear wrangler MTRs, 37 12.50 15
    -New Starter
    -Trimmed front fenders, lip is rolled back under, no sharp edges
    Not a hack job, the work is pretty clean, needs a little paint, and a little love, has some dents, works great, has great flex and is extremely capable, only ran at the cove 1 time, ran dictims ledge in the national forest 1 time, I have put 50k miles on the truck and hate to part.
    It has a brand new inspection sticker that I did not have to buy, It will pass VA inspection! Trade for nice car, 3/4 or 1 ton chevrolet, ford, international trucks, four wheel drives, car/equipment trailer, welders, tools, other trades considered.

    th_IMG_1062[1].jpg th_IMG_1070[1].jpg th_IMG_1072[1].jpg

    What would be a decent rice to offer? Or is it not worth my time.. I have a 1990 chevy i am trying to get rid of, so i am looking to trade plus/minus some cash if needed. I dont know what either of them are woth :confused:

    Thanks for the help :D

    Yea my iPhone doesn't show them sometimes. That rig seems to be worth a pretty penny. I would actually like to find an 80's-90's yota pickup as a trail rig too.

    Haha, I have no clue if hes interested in the chevy, he asked a few questions about it, i answered back and awaiting a reply. Im almost 100% sure this rig is worth alot more then the chevy but I dont have a clue. What is a good ballpark price for this rig?

    i hear you man. I have kept my eyes on the lookout for a decent rig for quite some time now. Between price and the condition, im not having much luck at all.
