It has seen very little use since, nly a few thousand miles. It was in occasional use until a few years ago. Good ground clearance, ull body on ladder-frame, ndependent front suspension, uel-injected engine, excellent throttle and clutch action, elatively light, nd fuel economy of well over 20MPG when driven carefully. When in low-low, he crawl ratio is very good for a stock SUV. This is a"real truck", ot a glorified car or minivan, ike many newer "SUVs" The body has some rust, ut has been repaired when necessary (new steel welded in and repainted). Fully undercoated. The rockers were cut out and replaced with welded-in heavy-wall square steel tubing, nd wooden nerf pads screwed to the sides of this tubing. Years ago, here were some small rust holes in the tubular frame rails, ut they were repaired with the "fish plate" method. The snowplow is a 6-1/2 foot Meyer with electric-hydraulic power lift and angle. The plow frame on the vehicle was custom made to fit it. Two complete sets of tires wheels!: 4 nicely-repainted OEM steel wheels with all-terrain tires with VERY little tread wear (not shown). 4 OEM steel wheels from a newer Nissan pickup truck, ith 4 Bridgestone Winter Dueler snow tires in good condition (on the truck now). The interior came from a 1991 Trooper of a higher trim level, nd is in good condition. Known problems: The return line from the power steering box is leaking significantly around where it threads into the box. We don't know if the fitting is damaged/rusted, r if the leak comes from the PS box itself. The plow raises and lowers normally, ut sticks when a power angle adjustment is attempted. The hydraulic cylinders move slightly, o it may be that one of the angle solenoids is stuck or faulty. No other significant issues that we know of. The engine block was rebuilt some time before we bought it. We replaced the cylinder head with a new aftermarket head in 2001, fter the notoriously failure prone OEM head cracked. The engine runs very well.
