103k original miles
I've owned this truck for a little over 2 years and its always been fun and reliable. It has the 5.0 EFI engine and AOD auto transmission. The transmission does not stay in OD at low speeds, so I just cruise around in 3rd gear usually, since it shifts fine, just doesn't like OD. It used to be one color (gray/bronze) but a friend hit the back with a tractor, and since there is no bumper, messed up the bed and tailgate pretty bad. No frame damage was done but I had to purchase a red bed from a junkyard. I took it off recently with the intention of doing some body work and painting the truck but I can never seem to find the time. I sanded off a lot of body filler from the cab so there is primer in a few areas of the hood and doors. The frame, cab, and bed have absolutely no rust. I flipped the rear axle and cut the front springs to lower it quite a bit. I have stock front springs and all the original hardware to return the truck to stock if someone wished to do so. The leaf springs in the rear have leaves missing so it needs some original ones. I called some junkyards and I Was quoted at or less than $115 for both rear springs. As it is, the frame sometimes makes contact with the rear axle. The truck and engine have 103k original miles and the engine runs like a champ. I recently did a full tune up with plugs, wires, cap, rotor, and coil. I'm also changing the oil this weekend. The only modifications here are the long tube headers and dual exhaust that I did myself. The trans fluid and filter were changed less than 500 miles ago. It has dual tanks but the rear fuel pump is bad. The front works great. It has 4 very good tires on it and the alignment is spot on (I've had it aligned 3 times since I've owned it since I lower and raise it and am a stickler for a good alignment). I recently replaced the passenger window regulator and motor but I think the driver side is acting up now; that regulator may need replacing. The truck cranks right up every time with ease and there are NO electrical or big mechanical problems with it; I've outlined everything wrong with this truck as far as I know. PM with anymore questions since that is the best method of contact for me.
Looking for $2400 or trade for just about anything. I like all kinds of stuff, I just don't seem to need another truck with my Jeep and '00 model F150 already in the yard.
Can get more pics upon request.
