shott thats a nice truck next to yours. and of course yours too. hah.

01ramclassic- if it doesnt/didnt sell on the ebay auction, try to get him down just a little for the rust- rust is dangerous because if its where you can see it, you never know where it could be that you DONT see it.

 

thats my buddy macks 01 1500, at that time he had 8" of lift and 40" superswampers on..with 3.56's geears... yea he isnt the brightest crayon in the box... he had to cut his fenders to fit them 40's he's a retard...thats the truck that we pulled the motor and trans in the barracks parking lot in a weekend and pulled the motor on a stand into his barraks room and rebuilt it... he never got it back together and parted the truck out.... he used to smoke alot of pot (before the corps obviously)

 

Looks like he had a lower ball joint just hanging by a thread, or had that thing cambered like a race car. What a waste of a good truck. I guess thats why I don't poke smot[sm=pimp.gif]

 

I got in touch with the seller and told him I would like to look at it in person if it doesn't sell. i'll know soon how it goes...

 

That is a good bit or rust under there. I live in PA, where the winters aren't the worst, but we do get a lot of moisture and salt. Mine doesn't look anything like that. About the price, it just seems high to me. I got mine for about $200 more than that buy it now this summer and I have an off road package quad cab. He should definitely move on price for you, at least I think he should.

 

NOt to mention the rust again but holy crap!! I live in NY,have a 97 ram with 130K and my under carriage looks a hella of lot better than that. Also the transmission pan looks like it has been changed, Tranny leak??? All most looks like it sat in a lake for a while.

 

yea us NY'ers get the bone when it comes to winter and salt... NYS uses as much salt as all other winterbelt states combined... DOT ********

yea that is a good point..i wonder why the underacarriege looks like that... but hell its still a PURDY truck

 

no ..not by a thread..just not installed...thats the weekend after we took it out wheeling and coming back on the freeway .. the truck started to shake violently and then the tire decided to fly off and careen through a gated comunity... a 40" tire rolling at 75MPH can do ALOT of damage...needless to say turning the truck into a tripod and grinding down the rotor, hub/bearins, lower balljoint and half of the tierod/steering bar

 

Well, it looks like it might sell at that price. Its less than 1000 away from the buy it now price. I'm not gonna bid on it. the plan was to go look at it in person if it didn't sell on ebay. Oh, well...

 

Technically, you should do a tranny filter/fluid replacement every 20-30k on all vehicles.....least according to my friend who owns a shop. Yes you can go longer, but SHOULD you is the real question.

Also, the rust looks kinda bad, but it looks mostly contained to the exhaust...and headers...
