    Just bought a new to me 97' 4x4 off an old large animal vet. it has a ridiculous front winch bumper that is coming off pronto. The body is straight but it does have some scratches. The motor sounds and runs great. Little bit of oil on the transfe case but no pool under the truck. Payed $5500 for it so I didn't expect a perfect truck but overall I'm really happy with it. Looking forward to learning what I can and hopefully being able to help with what I know.

    Daily driver for the most part. Would like to lift it a little and do something better for tires. Off road a little I mainly ride ATV so I dont need anything extreme. I had a 83' a long time ago with 13" and 42" Gumbo mudders but it didn't last very long. Always wanted another yota so I figured now is as good a time as any. We have an 11' 4Runner she drives so I got what I wanted.

    bakerla that isn't Baker La. huh??

    Thanks for the welcomes guys. It seems things are a lot different from what they used to be. Blocks and leaf packs aren't gonna lift this truck haha.
