    if everything works out i may be picking up this little gem. 22r, caged, linked w/sway bars, back halved, brand new prp seats, saw c/o's and bumps on all 4 corners, dual stand ups and 6 new tires. dude said he raced it a couple time a while back. glass needs some love as well as painting all the tube work and could use a set of 4x spindles but other than that she seems to be a good little truck( especially for the price). what do you guys think?

    Not bad little rig. Might just be the picture but the sway bar link looks slightly bent. Other then that just looks like it needs some TLC to get going,for the right price definitely :cool:

    What's the cage material? And which front setup does it currently have?

    good eye max ill be sure to check that out. i have a pic of the front but can't get to my computer at the moment but its a uni upper and bj lower..looks to be custom made and done pretty good..honestly the only thing that looks iffy on the truck is the spindle. the cab cage is 1 1/2 dom or chromo cause there is no weld lines like mild. could use some more tubes in there but for the most part the truck looks like it was done by someone who actually knew what they were doing.
    tlc would do wonders for this truck...for the price its beyond worth it

    As along as it cycles fine then you'll be good to go, is it still using the stock 2WD spindle then? Probably could find a 4WD spindle and modify it fairly easily.

    I'm sure you'd be able to do some pretty badass things with that truck :thumbsup:

    yes she does need a lot of love but for the price i could sell the shocks, bumps and glass and still make money off it.
    ya 2x spindle on it now...basically build a new front kit w/4x spindle. toss a bypass on front and back and some tlc and she will be a sweet lil mobber

    anyone have any input on these? i know I dont need much. Im looking for coil overs to pair up with 3.0 x 12 5 tube bypasses. whats the best go with and why? im assuming I wont need the compression adjuster so should I just look at getting one with just the internal bypass?
