Just bought back my old truck today lol!

Well 5 years later i randomly found my old truck on craigslist while looking for a 4bt cummins for my jeep wrangler project (needless tosay this will be put on hold). I instantly recognized the truck and the sellers name, i called him up and we made a deal. Here she is 4.5-5 years ago, she is still suprisingly clean and looks identical witht he exception of some rain guards and 265 tires.









by the way its a 97 auto 139k on the clock. Ill take some recent pics once i get it cleaned back to my standards as you can see in the pics, im pretty ocd about cleanliness. ON a side note, can i use a leveling kit from a 2003 on this 97, i bought it for my 03 but never used it. just curious

Heavyboostin, you shouldd be able to use the leveling kit on your 97. I think the leveling kits are the same for the 4x4 models between 94-09.
