This is the last year of the solid single axle. This vehicle is thought of by most as the height of the Toyota truck design. Super reliable and unstoppable. I went from a 2007 tacoma 4x4 to this and was amazed at how more i enjoyed this. The only reason i'm selling it is that i have a family of 4 and don't have much time to go off road or haul material any more.
It has a cracked rear tail light these are $19 at car quest. I purchased a new tailgate handle but haven't yet installed it. I currently have the tail gate inside "cover" unscrewed so i can manually open the gate. I just put a new alternator in about 3 weeks ago as well as put new coolant in. The alternator has a lifetime warranty.
The carb makes a whistle at idle but goes away when you give it gas. The noise goes away when you push lightly on the top of the carb so it's just one of the weber adapter seals. The seal kits are sold on ebay for under $20. I tried to tighten the 4 bolts a little and the noise isn't as loud. The bed has some holes near the tailgate where an old owner left a bag of cement over the winter. It's pretty minor, i was going to weld a little sheet metal in and rhino line the bed and it would look new but i haven't done it yet.
This is a great vehicle for someone who has the time to enjoy it, i wish i could hold onto it for when that day comes again. I changed the registration to antique because i was going to garage it and make it really pretty but my plans have changed. So if it's going to be your daily driver you need to get normal plates.
The suspension was lifted probably about 2 inches? I don't know exactly how high these were when stock but it looks very good and rides well. I was told by a mechanic friend that the lift was "done the right way". The previous owner was a semi truck driver who rebuilt cars in his free time. He had the engine ported, polished and honed. It probably has less than 3000 miles since then.
The tires are BFG and were new a few months before the engine was rebuilt so they look basically new. The wheels are nice alloys. Tire size is BFG KO 33x10.5 R15 High load, Mud and Snow rated. These are awesome tires and cost roughly $1000 from less schwab.
The locking hubs are the warn metal selectors.
Optional items you can also get if you want:
Aluminum diamond plate tool box locking with side pneumatic 'wing' doors $70
Stainless steel ladder rack $140
The weber carb gives it a lot of power. My new vehicle is a VW Vanagon and i really wish i had the Toyota engine and drive train in that vehicle.

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota Prius, V earn IIHS awards, Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV approved for V2H
Tue, Dec 30 2014The Toyota Prius and Prius V have earned IIHS 2015 Top Safety Pick+ ratings. The Prius V was singled out for its improved performance in the small overlap crash test. Lexus CT models built after September 2014 were also given the distinguished safety rating. In all, eight vehicles from Toyota and Lexus earned Top Safety Pick+ awards, while four more from Toyota and Scion were named Top Safety Picks. Read more in the press release below. The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV can now provide power to the home in Japan. The vehicle-to-home capability requires the CHAdeMO quick charging socket and either Mitsubishi's own Smart V2H system, or the EVPower Station or Tsubaki eLINK system. The Outlander PHEV gained vehicle-to-home approval alongside all-electric vehicles because its electric motor doesn't run when used in for this purpose. The system allows owners to power their homes during outages and emergencies, and the Outlander PHEV can also directly power appliances with its 1500W AC100V power feeder. Read more at Green Car Congress. The Electric Vehicle Institute has published an updated "Plug-In Around the EV World" poster. The poster depicts the various connector types used by EVs. It shows the standard AC connectors for the US and Europe, DC and combination connectors for fast charging and, of course, Tesla's own charging connector for the Model S. It also shows the standard plug types used around the world, which are color coded by country on a world map. See the Electric Vehicle Institute's poster here, or read more at Green Car Reports.

Toyota recalling 20k 2014 and 2015 cars and CUVs with 3.5L engines
Thu, 18 Sep 2014Toyota has announced a recall of roughly 20,000 vehicles covering the 2014 Avalon, Camry, Highlander (pictured) and Sienna, as well as the 2015 Lexus RX luxury crossover. The affected vehicles are all powered the 2GR-FE engine, which in layman's terms, is Toyota's well-regarded 3.5-liter V6.
According to Toyota's statement, a parts supplier might not have welded "the end cap on the right-hand fuel delivery pipe in the engine compartment" correctly, meaning fuel could leak. Leaking fuel, of course, increases the chance of an engine fire. That said, no fires, crashes or injuries have been reported due to the issue.
Owners will be notified to report to dealers, where techs will check the fuel delivery pipe and fit a replacement part as necessary.
