Negatives
· No a/c. (from the factory).
· Rust hole in behind rear left wheel. Only rust (or beginnings of rust) on the whole truck is behind the wheels in the fenders. All external body panels are solid.
· Heater door control cable/selector is broken. (plastic gearing behind the knob is broken). Replacement is in the truck but not installed.
· Blower motor resistor only works on levels 3 and 4.
· Tear in center of bench seat. (will include seat rails to add basically any other seat with minor welding).
· Will need new front CV axles soon. They click during turning in 4wd. ($60 apiece).


Notable
  • 166,000 miles. As far as I know the drive train is original with no rebuilds to the engine, trans, or transfer case.
  • No leaks noticed at this time (concrete driveway for many months).
  • Clutch and transmission are in good working order, no grinds.
  • No major body damage noticed. Rear tailgate was dented and recently replaced with another tailgate which only has 1-2 small dings. Rest of the vehicle has only minor dings, if any. Paint is not peeling but there are numerous small chips/scratches indicative of a 21 year old truck. If my pictures do not capture them I will be happy to take close ups.
  • Added LSD carrier from 30,000 mile 2006 Rx-8, filled with Mobil1 gear oil. I believe the trucks had an option of a locker from the factory in the US, but I believe it was a very rare option. I have never seen one in person or on the internet. In the aftermarket, people have used the s4 clutch type, but I believe mine is the only one to have used the Rx-8 carrier. Basically it is a TII Rx-7 size straight axle. It works great though I have not taken it off road. Both front and rear axle ratios are 4.33. (only 4wd manual trans models received this ratio).
  • 4WD and automatic locking feature functioning properly (vacuum operated actuator).
  • Replaced rear tires in November. Fronts in good condition.
  • Former owner replaced ECU and all four injectors
  • Front grille plastic and headlight trim has been replaced with new factory look aftermarket trim.
  • Front sway bar bushings have been replaced with energy suspension bushings. End links/mounts drilled to accept larger more common bushings as well.
  • Engine bay fuel lines replaced to/from fuel filter and engine.
  • Have seat rails from ext cab which provide base for future aftermarket seats.
  • Have universal sunroof pulled from junkyard Bseries… in good condition needs new seal (truck does NOT currently have a sunroof).
  • New catalytic converter (passes TN emissions).

Sigh. Yes, the plan was to cannabalize the vert for the driveline and use a modified trans to keep it 4WD. It has been done before and is definitely possible if someone can fab up new motor/front diff mounts and piece together the driveline. I hate being that guy that states his lofty plans and backtracks ("hey bro i'm gonna build a 4-rotor in my carport"), but as usual things change and I've decided to keep the vert for a while. Plan is to get some sticky tires and autocross it a little more. The truck has been awesome and served its actual purpose, just time to move on and hopefully/maybe let someone else try the swap.

Drove it to Chattanooga last weekend. Performed like a champ.
