I picked up this 93 4x4 Sport on Friday 8/29/14 for the hefty sum of $800.
I got lucky on the price, as this was originally listed as no title on my local Craigslist. As it turned out the title had a lien on it, and the lady wanted to sell it without a title. I asked her to check into the cost of paying off the loan. Within 30 minutes I received a text from her stating it was paid off and the title was clear. I asked her so $800? As much as she hated to, she told me yes.
Useful info:
Previous owner owned it for 6 years and had the A/C converted to R134a as well as had the head gaskets done.
I found a receipt in the glove box for the head work in December of 2012.
I also found a receipt for the last oil change done in February of 2014 and to date has 300 miles on it, and 120 of that was me driving it home.
Stats:
1354E t-case
M5OD trans
Warn manual hubs
Decent looking Ranger aluminum wheels, with 2 almost new tires.
And a Limited slip 3.73 rear

ugly front bumper, so I installed my 94 limited bumper and grille from my other truck.
It had some running boards on it, that I didn't care for so I removed them.
Running board on:
Running board off:
Inside:
Hubs:
Axle code:
The truck has been in the state of PA at least once in its life, because the old inspection sticker is still on the window from 2008.
As far as rust goes, the drivers side dog leg/ lower rocker has a hole, above the right rear wheel well and some surface rust on the frame.
It couldn't have lived in the northeast long, because the bumper bolts weren't rusted to death, or maybe someone washed it religiously during the winter :dunno:
I would love to say lift and tires, but the odds are it maybe quite sometime if ever that happens.
