1992 XtraCab, 4X4, manual transmission, manual locking hubs, 6 Cylinder 3.0L 3VZE engine - $3500 OBO

Brought the truck with me when I moved from central California a few years ago, so it spent most if its life in a road salt free environment. Only has light surface rust in spots on the frame.

Tires have about 15k

Legendary 3VZE head gasket was replaced at 220k miles with a Toyota replacement. Heads were machined and valve lash adjusted, timing belt replaced along with many other parts. See below.

Since I have had it I have replaced:
- PS pump
- Headgasket (Toyota gaskets, resurfaced heads)
- Timing belt, and associated pulleys and water pump
- Idler pulley for accessory belts
- Catalytic converter
- Muffler
- Re-routed exhaust (crossover eliminated)
- Oxygen sensor
- Ball Joints
- Injectors cleaned and rebuilt
- Front shocks
- Spark plugs and wires
- All fluids including replacing the transmission fluid with Red Line MT-90 GL4 gear oil.
- Regurally changed oil+ Filter
-Other minor things I'm not remembering at the moment

Known Issues:
- Intermittent Speedometer - problem with the instrument cluster - odometer works fine
- AC never worked since I had it. I haven't tried to trouble shoot it.
- Squeak from clutch throw out bearing
- Slight brake pulse (I was going to replace the pads, rotors, and drums, but didn’t get to it. I have new pads, front rotors, drums and rear shocks that will come with the truck).
- Front bumper is a little bent on the driver’s side
