Was told by previous owner Engine and trans rebuilt before I purchased, No paperwork on rebuild, can tell by gaskets tho. IVe had truck for over 3 years. New true to vehicle #s catalytic converter, newer front axles, newer air meter, thermostat, FPR, monotube shocks, changed out bearing in driveshaft and changed out backshaft, newer alternator, battery, plugs, changed all driveline fluids 2 years ago, exhaust sounds mean. A/c works but needs recharge every six months(doesn't completely drop pressure) heater works but hard to turn cause no faceplate. FM radio with decent sounding speakers amp and sub. 4x4 works great, engine has a mild cold drive hesitation if I try to throttle it heavy cold, after it warms up its perfect, I've read in multiple forums that's common in aged 3.0L. Trans shifts good, no grinds or chatters but not perfectly smooth. No mechanical leaks. I first purchased the truck for work which was approx. 200 miles round trip for a few months. After that it was my off-roader hence the dents, shocks, axles, driveshaft, battery(which jumped out of place at one point keeping up with my buddies rubicon). I suggest getting new serpentine, and bigger tires is the only thing really needed for long travels. I drive it 65 cause rpms run high on freeway from small tires. Has hitch and wiring but doesn't light up the trailer. Has a small electrical issue, can't figure if it's the newer alternator or wiring, but lights dimm when blinkers flash and starter won't turn if trucks sits for 2 weeks even with newer battery. All in all its been a great truck, never left me stranded, off-roading ventures and work truck. But with a kid on the way , too many vehicles, and only driving it 4000 miles the past two years. I gotta let it go. Thanks for looking
