On all the toyota sites they say they are discontinued. Which I wouldnt get one off there any ways. Think it said around 4000 they wanted for it. Like your kill in me smalls

 

There is a small difference in the frame horns. The earlier ones were a bit longer in the front, but can be adapted with ease.

 

What does the guy you know want for it mechanicjon

 

The old curse of the 98-00 frame Treat yourself to an aftermarket bumper - problem solved

Too bad you didn't need a 4 door. Here is one in your state.

 

Yeah I was thinking you could get a parts truck and break even after parting it out down to the frame.

 

Find a roll over from a western state and have it shipped. The last time I bought an out of state project truck, it cost me $650 for shipping.

 

I was thinking about getting one from an auction

I was planning on buying a wrecked v6 4x4 and swapping my 2WD and Inline 4 Cylinder.

 

$1200.00 for frame.

 

The U-Pull it in Beaumont TX had a '98 (?) last year. They're cheap but I think the rear springs are different length for 98....if it even is 98.....and if you have a later......Call them if you want to and are willing to travel. Frame was about all that was left. Access Cab.

 

95.5-97 had shorter leaf springs. 98-04 had the same afaik.

 

Pretty much your just gonna want a Extended cab frame in general . Any year will work but all 3 cab configurations are different . And between the transmissions the only difference is the tranny mount crossmember . Frame horns are slighty different on 98-00 models but they make adapters that you weld on to fix that . The rear is the same except 98+ have leaf spring mounts that are more spaced out and the gas filler neck is slightly different on mounting . Picture is my 97 on a 2001 frame
