trading in, need info on how to look up dealer reputation, help with this 4runner...
I guess you guys think im an idiot, Ive been thinking about the 4x4 conversion and its just something I cant see being a feasble outcome.
here is the 4runner, it is a 2000 4wd sport pkg,
http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...g=1&cardist=28
what im wanting do know if their is something besides carfax in order to check this runner out, I have already talked to the sales manager and sales person, very nice people, want to make this happen as far as swapping my lift and crap onto this runner as they want mine with less miles
it does have 120k but only 14k more then mine.
Got a sorta from my mom but shes not totally sure. I am as I think its in great condition, and a little better then mine.
let me know all of your opinions, to be honest this is sorta a good opportunity but I will only go ahead with the right deal and right interest rate when they buy mine out and finance this one.

When I bought my 4runner I worked directly with the sales/fleet manager. He really didn't care too much what he got for it because he got paid no matter what unlike the salesmen. He gave me a good deal on mine. So try to see if you can work with one of the managers. Other than that considering I haven't seen your 4runner this one looks pretty good. Does it have the rear diff lock?

Problem I see reverting my to stock is we flipped the stupid scab plates over the frame and now im not sure if I can even take my bodylift out, I may see if I can get a 1/4" pucks made for a 1/4 bodylift to accomodate those plates, or i can try and get the top of the plates cut off.

I do have a potential seller, my moms coworker has a son, going to see if we can do it that way and i will have money left over (arb air lockers front and rear come to mind).

most everything has been done it looks like, but im going to follow up with both the dealerships of both owners home towns (each town is about 30 minutes from me) and confirm maintence records on the following.
Im going in for a test drive thursday, but it looks like I may be sporting around in a black 4runner for the rest of its career
