Walker exhaust is never done as a performance upgrade, and the bellcranks have been replaced. This truck has rust issues and that is most certainly not a good deal.

That sprayed on rubber coating is a nightmare.

The 4runner I bought has it. The sad thing is my 4runner has a solid frame and they just covered up surface rust. I checked with hammer and screwdriver before buying. Also checked later with a snake camera to confirm no major rust issues.

That coating will trap moisture and make the rust worse. I'm Going to have hours and hours removing it all and putting real under coating on it.

I feel sorry for the person who gets stuck in that trap for a possible low mileage truck.

If this came from Philadelphia area. This I'd possibly a city truck. Lots of these have an extreme smout of idle time and low miles because it's all city.

Normal low miles wouldnt have Walker exhaust and completely rotted out bumpers.

I wondered for years why all vehicles dont have hour meters as this engine could have had the equivalent of 400 to 500k miles on idling as the exhaust never could dry out thus it rotted out needing replaced.
