i trade my peace of junk honda for this yota. let me know what you think

 

what is all that crap welded to the frame?

 

Looks like rust "repair"

 

Well one side he broke the leaf mount so he tried to fix it and made it worst. on the other side he tried to fix the rust hole by welding some crap on there and calling it good.

 

with that frame I am not sure who came out ahead on this trade, you or the guy that got the honda...

 

I think I did sent hondas are peaces of junk

 

YIKES I'm gonna have nightmares tonight after seeing that frame....

 

if you think his is bad, go take a look at my build thread. The last few pages.

It cost me $500 to have both sides replated and boxed. Probably should have cost more, but the guy stuck to his estimate.

I need to get some after photos though, the guy who did it said he was gonna email me some cell phone pics he took while doing it, but they haven't showed up. I need to pressure wash it though as it's all mudded up again.

 

9-sec I have the same frame rust in the same area. I kick myself everyday for not crawling underneath before I bought it.

 

Yeah but I only got it for 600 bucks. Witch is what I paid for the Honda. So if I paid a guy to do it for 500 to 1000 then I'll still be ahead. Soo I think I got a good deal. The truck runs and drives like a champ.

 

where are you in mo. ?

 

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek

i agree if you can figure out a way to un-redneck that truck for cheap you might be ahead. good luck. its a project, do everyone a favor and don't drive it until it's fixed because that is downright scary looking. i still think in parts you got a fairly good deal, because even if you cant fix the frame you can easily make over 600 by parting it out, if it comes to that. or find another frame and swap it over. frame off!!!

 

I just read xxxtreme22r's build thread, if you can do what he got done on his frame for $500, its definitely worth it.

 

holy crap! literally that is holy crap!

 

Ok so let's say I never posted any pictures of the frame would you guys still be saying this???

 

I live 10 min south of KC mo

 

people on here have bought worse for more and were happy.

To be safe get it checked out and fixed right and it'll be better than new. Or find 2nd half of a good frame and just section it out.

600$ is a good deal and you got out of a car so I'd say you were ahead.

 

I wouldn't put anything heavy in the bed!

Even with the rust I'd say $600 is a pretty decent deal. We don't have rust issues where I'm from so a similar rig would have been $1500-2500 depending on mileage.

 

Here in Kansas city there going from 2500 to 4500 on craigslist

 

I meant for a similar rig.
