I have a guy offering me the following ride for $7000. Do you think it is worth it ? I have an 05 Limited 4wd right now and just ran across this as a second ride.

Thank you in advance for any help. Going to go see it tomorrow. Is an SR5.

CRafferty

Yeah, if that was near me I'd be all over it. That is a really sweet rig.

Going to go test drive it tomorrow. See how it rides. What would be a good way to go on supercharger ?

CRafferty

I'd say factory.. the TRD S/Cs are supposed to work really well. But it's up to you.

kasimo420

But yall think everything looks good ? Will take more pictures tomorrow.

crolison

it's not running 5.88 gears, most likely 4.88's

probably running 02 headlights, 03 would be hard to put in there.

my guess its got 3" bl on it, which is the worst thing.

kasimo420

Said it was 1" body lift. Said they were 5.88. How could I check ? What should I look for tomorrow to make sure I am getting what I need ?

crolison

its not 5.88, the deepest for our 7.5 rev rotation is 5.29. Infact the deepest you can get for an 8" third is 5.71.

use that to figure out the rpms for certain speeds, but remember your speedo will be off.

also with the 5speed 33's and 5.29s your going to be running 65ish at 3k rpm, it will drive like a semi.

Anyone else have any opinions ?

chris360hawks

wtf do you need 5.88s on 33s? I have stock gearing on 285s and my truck pulls fine and still get 18mpg!

They are not 5.88's...

They are 4.88's most likely.
