Why don't you keep it especially since you have a broken truck a spare dmax is a good idea

ive thought about it but this is my motor build money im dippin into so that means its only gunna take that much longer to get that money back. Had my samurai not gotten wrecked i wouldnt even be lookin at this truck but since the PD is slower than hell and cant finish a police report in less than 14-21 days i have to wait :mad:. Not to mention, i dont know what kind of shape the steering is in, the wheel bearings, the ball joints, the u-joints, ect.

Id love to put a drop shackle on the back to level it out and jsut leave it that way. slammed is cool but then ill be worried about every little pebble on the road and i already have a truck im puttin all my time and effort into to be one of a kind. Im pretty set on jsut buyin it for levi and havin him buy it back if everything checks out and i can get it for the magic number. If it goes through, im puttin his traction bars on i built him a long as time ago and will cruise it around for a bit till he can make it down and pick it up. Eitehr way i get it play in it :D

na, its in pretty damn rough shape compared to the pics. i made him an offer and he didnt take on it. i really wouldnt be surprised if it sits on craigslist for another month before he gets another offer. Ill give him a call in a few weeks and see if he changed his mind (if it aint sold).

What was wrong with it? Mechanical issues or cosmetic? Was it in driveable condition?
