    I’m testing the waters here to see about selling my 1997 Toyota Tacoma Ext cab.....


    This truck has been an absolute joy to own and never left me stranded. It currently has 238k miles on it but has essentially be overhauled and I just returned back from a 3500 miles trip all the way down into Baja Mexico and it was a treat on the highway as well as on the rugged terrain. The only reason I’m looking to potential sell is I just picked up a 2019 4 runner and I’d like to build that rig up and there is no need for 2 overland rigs. The truck is currently located in Memphis TN .


    Message me or text me at 901 484 6432




    Equipment on the truck:

    • Kargo Master 2 roof rack
    • hood Rhino lined
    • ARB bull bar bumper
    • Warn
    • ARB single compressor (90 PSI)
    • ARB dual jerry can holder (+ 2 jerry cans)
    • ARB roll out awning over rear of vehicle
    • High lift jack
    • WARN 10x- S winch (10k lbs/synthetic)
    • Hitch mounted rear tire holding/swing
    • 5 Mickey Thompson Classic 2 wheels (spare included)
    • Smitty built axe/shovel mount (includes axe and shovel)
    • Bilstein 6112 front coilovers (W/ King 700 lb springs) ** have Bilsiten 600 lbs springs to include also
    • Bilstein 5162 rear Struts with external reservoir
    • Deaver add a leaf- Leaf springs in the rear
    • Hitch with towing harness
    • Dual 9 inc LED offroad lights
    • Camper sell with flip up side windows (not sure of brand)
    • President III CB radio with 5 ft TRAM CB whip
    • Corbeau Baja RS offroad seats
    • 10% tint on every window minus the windshield
    • Kenwood double din stereo screen
    • (4) Kenwood speakers in cab
    • Frame slider (welded to frame)
    • Custom build removable bed platform with storage areas
    • Front Manual lockers (no rear lockers)

    ** Note: a lot of this equipment is new within the last year as I was building this truck up for the Baja trip I went on.

    Done within the last 15k miles:

    • New battery
    • Transmission oil and gasket replaced
    • Front and rear dif oils replaced
    • Front brake calipers rebuilt
    • Fuel pump replaced
    • Fuel filter replaced
    • New ignition spark wires
    • New spark plugs

    Done within the last 3k miles:

    • New master cylinder
    • New brake booster
    • Cam shaft seals replaced
    • Valve cover gasket replaced
    • Intake manifold gasket replaced
    • Timing belt replaced/serviced
    • Water pump and gasket replaced
    • Radiator replaced
    • Alternator replaced
    • Brand new Firestone Destination A/T tires (33/12.5/15)

    • New steering rack
    • New camburg UCA
    • New Moog LCA
    • New Moog lower ball-joint
    • New Moog inner/outer tie rod ends


    I'm probably missing a few items but all in all the truck has been rebuilt on the top end and doesn’t burn a lick of oil and runs strong with zero hesitation to drive it 3500 miles into another country lol. This rig is legit ready to hope in and enjoy. No work needed.


    Looking for $12,000 for the rig. Text me to ask more questions and get some more pics. 901-484-6432

    ‘Essentially been overhauled’ in what way? I don’t see listings of major engine work.

    perhaps overhauled isn't the correct word. I had a shop in ATX fix/replace the following items within the last 5k miles:

    camshaft cam seals
    intake manifold gasket
    both valve cover gaskets
    Both belts
    Water pump/housing/gasket
    internal timing belt


    I changed out:

    alternator
    radiator
    spark plugs
