    Too many to list.
    If you were to buy the parts to build a car, it would cost you 10 times as much as to buy it already built... With that in mind, go find one that is driveable... In fact, I saw a couple posted today in the buy/sell/trade section today...

    building trucks is a pain in the @$$! no joke ive had some toys and built some toys for friends. if i were you i would down load the tech manual on the truck. pm me if you want me to email it to you.

    but dont do it. i can turn a wrench and i will never buy a car that i know is messed up. every car had a problem you cant see, if you see ten........theres 20 you cant see.

    if you happen to buy it, may god have mercy on your soul.

    Thanks for all of the help guys. I ended up picking up a 99 V6 5spd today for 6400. It needs a little work but for around here you cant find one for under 7500 and one that is not beat to hell. Here are some pics, sorry its dirty I was testing out the 4wd :D

    I have done all the hi-pro mods for a life time, since I got this truck at a great price, I will be happy with showroom new.
    Hey looks nice, I just got mine last fall, it came from a ranch in Texas, very hard to find Any older used trucks up here that are not falling apart or eat up with rust. Lots of very good info on this site for maintenance.
