Tow rig/daily driver

Gonna keep this truck all stock is what i said...i failed on that department, lol.
Had a death wobble and vibration problem develope over the last 20,000 miles. I sent it to the shop 2 weeks ago for a complete front end rebuild after I had my auto hubs fail. New front axle U-joints, all new steering parts and bushings. Also threw a small lift on it a dual steering stabilizer kit. 166,321 miles on it now and it should last a good while. Hopefully drive like new again when I get it back. Still very happy with the truck. Not real practical for me to be daily driving it for my 88 mile commute...but I enjoy driving it. Probably stop that once these tires wear out and i size up.

Might as well throw a new steering gear box in it...and a new axle shaft. 
This luck doesn't even upset me anymore.

Sorry to hear, but when will you learn it's not the color of the truck.....it still has an oval
I'm actually currently looking for a 99-00 GM. Crew cab short bed. I'm sure it'll be nothing but problems too.Sorry to hear, but when will you learn it's not the color of the truck.....it still has an oval
Yep, I think it would be wise to expect a lot of problems with a 25yr old truck lol.

Those issues have already been addressed I'm guessing. If the body mounts are solid those are great trucks.
