My new '97 T100 4x4 SR5

Bought it a few weeks ago- mfg 10/96 (#581)- 143,000 miles from second owner (I'm the third). Replaced timing belt/water pump, cv boots/front axles, added nerf bars, Zaino clay bar and ZFX treatment, oil change and air filter this past week. Truck is just great for it's age, no rust, minor oil leakage from rear main seal, tires are good for another 7-10k or so. Pretty much all stock, no other mods besides bed liner and Pioneer head unit/cd. Considering adding a powered sub woofer and chrome exhaust tip. No off roading, occasional freeway commute and boat/wood hauling a few times/year. Hope to put at least another 12 years on this fine truck.

sloth!- I paid $6700 for it last month- local shop charged me $1k to change out timing belt/water pump/seals/CV boots/front axles. Nerf bars ran another $300. Wifey says no more truck accessories (for a while anyways)....

Here's a link to zaino's site: http://www.zainostore.com/- click on the product tab to find the ZFX.

I used the ZFX treatment on all my cars- new and old- it works great after a good clay bar. Brought this '97 back to life and it's smooth as silk....
