Oh and the dreaded violent wobble at random speeds that wasn't related to front end alignment, wheel balancing, U joints or anything normal. Just periodical whole vehicle shaking. Come to a stop and re-start and would go away.
When I got rid of it on paper it was worth probably $5000. I sold it for $1500 because of all the problems. I told the guy buying why the price was low. He was okay with it when he bought it. Some time after he bought it, I bumped into him. He drove the truck for about a month, parked it in his yard and there it still sits rotting away.

Yep i did three brakes on mine......
The best was the guy who sold it to me said the steering went out while he was loading it on the car carrier and busted the guys taillight out!!!! The salesman told me when i went back there, "man i almost got my *** beat over your truck!" I told him man that truck has beat mine for the last 5 years!!!!!
