| Wheel problems |
The frame and bed is completely rusted out. So much so that the one of the leaf springs broke loose and came through the bottom of the bed while driving down a straight stretch of road. The truck is now completely not drivable. I have heard several complaints about this same make/model/year truck. Even from people where their cities don't salt the roads in the winter.
The truck is a total rust bucket three sets of wheel bearings, four sets of brakes,air conditioner lines,transmission lines all rusted out. Four wheel drive motor shot,latch on tailgate broken,rear end leaks upper and lower repaired. At lest the radio woks great . I can see why they stopped making this truck.
Front wheel bearings fialed while driving. I was able to safetly stop the vehicle.
