Im selling my 96 T4R 4cyl auto to get a down payment on a FJ cruiser.its got about 327k on it right now and i drive it every day to work which is about 46 miles round trip, its lacking in the rust department i guess cause i live in north texas so we dont salt roads and we dont have coastal salt. i have replaced many things on it since i have owned it. rough guess would be about 60k that i have put on it
Steering Rack
Radiator
Starter
both lower ball joints
front struts
valve cover gasket
rear drive shaft (had it rebuilt with new CV joint) <----was like $500!
driver seat was repaired on the lower cushion, it looked terrible when i first got it
i have 2 new axles for it, i keep spares if i go wheelin
rear locker is Aussie brand, the 4:56 gears are stock.
it has the v6 diff with 4 pinion carrier front and rear
it used to be purple but i covered the body in roll on bedliner. it works well for not getting all scratched up in woods and trail type areas. and its an amazing back scratcher. and since its rubberized im pretty sure it protects against being hit by lightning. (so far so good)
i have a double din sony radio in it. wx-gt90bt is the model number i think
has a smittybuilt 8000lb winch
front and rear Addicted offroad tube bumpers
lots of LED lights that are stick on mounted to the headliner
cobra classic 29 cb mounted to the headliner
im not really sure what kind of wheels i got for it but they are 4in backspacing
a/c has worked since i have owned it
4wd works great
transmission shifts good
engine runs good and doesnt smoke or misfire
being that it has almost 330k miles on it, yes it does have problems:
1.oil pump seal is leaking
2.tires are bald
3.one of the rear axle seals is leaking
4.front sway bar links broken
5.weld on the exhaust where it goes into the muffler is leaking
6.left front upper control arm bushings
7.interior has seen better days but its not too bad. (i will try to get pictures in the morning)
honestly tho i wouldnt be afraid to drive it anywhere. its never left me stranded
