Re: whatchall think of this truck..
That's is not a factory shortbox frame unless the cab was moved back a couple of inches. I would pass on it in a heartbeat.

Re: whatchall think of this truck..
yeah, I have to agree with everyone else here... if that frame has been cut and shortened, I would walk away from that deal. You would have no idea if they did it right (or not). For the same money, you could get a complete 2WD truck with a good frame under it.
Sometimes you have to say no and walk away. ![]()

Re: whatchall think of this truck..
I wouldn't say the truck is a turd or POS, assuming it runs good and all of the 4wd gear is good, then he's not crazy out of line, but it does appear the frame was shortened too much for a regular shortbed, but if he intended to make a trail truck out of it, a lot of guys do "extra short beds" on trail trucks, then the real short bed length would make sense to me.
I would personally pass on it because it's not what I'd be looking for, but I don't feel it's a POS nor is he "crazy" on his price, just a little high.

Re: whatchall think of this truck..
it sounds like u want to fix it and sell it so u should pass cuz theframe has been cut or it could be a blazer it looks like that would be the place for middle mount right between the seats but if its going to be for wheeling it would be great seeing as u only need a runing truck and 4wd to go it thats the case check the back for a posi or lock or jack it up and see if the wheels spin the same way for posi
