Wow nice find you should beable to sell off what you don't need and make some of the money back In fact there is a guy in texas looking for a cab

and Wait a Min all I did was Show you how Nice your truck would Look being a real crewcab 4x4 what are Friend's for If you need help just e mail me

 

The rear fuel tank strap had rusted out, and tank was hanging down...ratchet strapped helped here.



Brakes are soft...probably the RWAL valve on the back axle. But the thing steered like a drunkin elephant on the drive home. I later discovered why...The couple on the steering box in toast. I`m amazed it was still steering it is so bad.Rebuild kit on order...

 

The pass side door is stuck shut, and the door handle is seized. So I will have to wrestle the door panel off from the inside...should be fun. But it has a nice grey interior...going to swap everything over to the crewcab!

 

Motor only has 258K Kms on it...about 160K miles. Runs nice and clean, no hazing or smoke.



Going to swap motor over to the crewcab too when I do the 4x4 conversion. Keep my Non-IC motor as my spare.

 

the Nice thing is take that front seat and set it in back then find a set of 2002 seat's and use them for front PM me if you need Pictures as you go I have Plenty gotta luv friend's Right

Just advise use everything from dash foward and swap it over that way it all bolt's right back in .

 

I spent a few hours yesterday, and today, pressure washing the truck, and then scrubbing it down. Looks a lot better now. Wife wants me to drive this truck instead of the old miss matched crewcab... I`m very excited about swapping everything over to the crewcab. I`m going to fix a few things on the 93 and then I might insure it and drive it a little. Will probably rebuild the front king pins and hubs as well as service the diffs and everything else and get it all up to par before the donating begins.

 

Yup that`s the plan...sheet metal too. I will have to see what the box loks like under the wheel flares...think it`s rusty. But will use front sheet metal, and doors too. Man the wife won`t like the multi color truck when this is all done...

 

Isn't that what paint is for lol

 

Eventually....

 

Wow, nice find. My 93 donor truck was very similar, maybe except, I paid $2300 for it; it's engine is the one I put in my 4x4 motorhome. I had to find a 4x4 94/95 donor to get the 47rh/np241 off of; found one for $2000. All in all, I sold the donor leftovers for $2500.

 

Nice find! Looks in the pictures to be a very nice truck, I went through about 5 "donors" with trucks like that. Would end up fixing them and selling for a profit

 

I'd love to have that tailgate, Ash!

 

The tailgate is not in bad shape. The trim panel has no dents or dings...just a little bubbling under the red near the liftgate handle.

I did a service on the motor today...guy said it had been 3 years since the last one!! The fuel filter took me over and hour to get off. And it had a K&N filter in it...which looks like it's been in there for 10 years! I have a nice new paper unit in there now. Turbo is nice too....no slop or play what so ever...and by the look of the nuts and bolts it might have been replaced fairly recently.

 

Nice score mr TC ! That's why I was using my 92 club cab for my crew conversion. That way you have all the parts u need. Smart move.

 

Thank you!

I have been under the truck the last couple days....man is it rusty!! I'm going to have to soak ever joint, nut and bolt with PB Blaster for the next 6 months, then probably heat the heck out of ever fasteners before I try to loosen things. I don't even have bleeder screws on the front calipers anymore!!
