More pics of the "new" truck.. Interior has not been touched by me.

Truck has original shocks, original windshield that's in perfect shape and interiors isn't half bad. I'm starting to think mileage isn't right in the cluster? The led screen doesn't work at all on the cluster which leads me to think someone made it not work.

Picture of miles through scan tool into cluster.

Pre pressure wash clean up was the pics earlier. Bed is the worst part about the body. It's not mint by any means.

During and after pics

Interior is how I bought it. I have not touched it.

if the guy that drove it isnt "heavy" and picked himself up out of the seat some, those cloth seats hold up extremely well.

my leather driver seat has 203k on it and the only tears are from when i left a screw driver in my pocket.... the driver door edge of it leather is worn but not torn or coming apart. i have a new cover and armrest cover to put on but i need to buy the back seat rest and see how to clean up the damn seat belt before i redo it.

now, i dont want any more damn excuses about no rods. sell the sucker for rod money or drive it till your engine is build with rods :roflmao::roflmao::angel:

Seat is in amazing shape for what it is .. I know of another lly with a 230 lb guy driving and it was literally broken down. So either this seat has been replaced or a petite gal drove the wheels off this truck.

Spent the last 4.5 hours working in the lly.. Pulled y bridge and removed turbo feed line which was siliconed on.. Replaced with another and put back together. Started up and checked for leaks.. Turbo drain tube is leaking too.. Has a hole in it where they bent it so they could install the feed line.. So off the turbo has to come..

Broke all the passenger up pipe bolts at the manifold, all the up pipe bolts came out of the turbo.. All I have left to pull turbo is mounting bolts and oil drain bolts.. I've got a 130k lly turbo on the shelf I'll be installing for piece of mind.. It looks like somone has tried taking the turbo apart at the big clamp between halves

Verified the cluster does read 514k miles..
