He can ask all he wants..... I'm curious to know what it finally sells for.. Lemme know what you paid!

Unfortunately he said there were a number of people in line ahead of me to look at it, so we may never know.

Too bad, it was a gem!

I don't have 15 posts yet, so I couldn't start my own thread, Im hoping I can get an answer here!

I am in the market for a clean 4x4 T4R, ideally a 5-speed manual, but okay with an auto.

I just found a very clean 2002 SR5 sport edition, with 209k miles, priced fairly well. But it has tan leather. I was under the assumption that only limiteds got leather, or was it an option on the SR5 sport as well?(Truck is black, with tan leather, and the console trim is silver) So did someone swap in the leather, or am I just confused?

Also, I understand that the rear diff lock wasn't available in the 01-02s. Which is okay, but is it something I could add later if I were to get this truck, or is it not compatible with the multimode 4wd?

Thanks guys!

I knew I recognized your name from AWD Pirates, even though I haven't been on there in ages. Leather isn't Limited exclusive, mine came factory with a leather interior. The locker seems like a pretty common retrofit, though I'm not up on the details since mine already has one. I can't imagine the transfer case will really affect it.

And thank you!

I did read that, but I didn't see anything about leather on the sr5 sport, I might have just missed it. Thank you though!

Spent a lot of money on her. Everything from trans cooler to deckplate and lighting.

 

[RedRunner_87]

Got 90% of the parts for the rear diff breather mod. No Stealerships around here, but I got one up in Denver that is going to hold it. I'll pick it up when I get the sliders installed.

Deckplate mod & new air filter

 

[99Runnr]

I did my rear o2 sensor and the front showed up later for whatever reason. Anyways, rear went without a hitch. Tap socket on, pb blasted it the day before. Snapped loose and I threaded it the remaining way with my fingers.

Crawled my happy ass under it today to do the front. The picture shows the beauty that was before me. That tiny silver spot is from me attempting a quick turn if there was anything left that resembled a 6 point socket.

:smash:

So, quickly ordered a pizza, got the whisky out, said **** and ripped the exhaust apart. Cut the studs off. Welded nuts to the studs, torched it, still seized. PB blaster, let it soak for 4 hours. Same thing. So I ground them flat, cleaned the surface, welded my new Denso o2 sensor flange right to it and threaded the sensor in. Filled the holes where the stud's were, made it look decent and put that ***** together.

No exhaust leaks, 219k mile o2 sensor's no more.
