'96 Toyota Tacoma trail rig -- Tuscaloosa, AL

Posting this for a friend, who does not have time to get online much due to work.

The owner, who purchased the truck last year, has reluctantly decided to let the truck find a new home. He no longer has as much time for wheeling as when he bought it and knows someone else can get more use out of it than he can at this time. For the most part the truck is the same as when he bought it from Shannon on the TTORA forum (Shannon is the founder/owner of TTORA). He has replaced a couple u-joints and I think the front driveshaft, and has some spare parts he accumulated shortly after buying it.

Asking price is $8,0000. For $1,500 extra a nearly new (roughly 1 yr. old) trailer will be included with it. Owner is willing to meet/deliver within about 150 miles of Tuscaloosa, AL.

You may PM me with questions, which I will then relay to the owner, or you can PM him directly at Firetaco.

Vehicle Specs:

- Custom built HP/RR D60 front axle w/5:38's, Detroit, 35 spline inner shafts and 30 spline outers
- Custom built D60 rear axle with w/5:38's , full spool and 35 spline D70 shafts

Ladies and gentlemen, for those of you that don't know...I believe that's Shannon Brookshire's rig.
Is he selling this due to the recent events?

Oh man, if I didn't mind being in more debt I'd snag that thing up in no time.

Bump.

The current owner bought it from Shannon last summer IIRC.

As Terry said, this is Shannon's former rig. The current owner bought it from Shannon about a year ago. It is essentially the same as when Shannon sold it, though with some newer parts.

Terry, thanks for the bumps. Ernie and I appreciate it.

Least I could do. Ernie spent more time wrenching on my junk than wheeling last time I saw him!

Yep, that's Ernie alright. He's a great guy like that. He loves helping folks and wrenching as much or more than wheeling.
