It's a good truck, but keep in mind it's age. It's going to need some repairs, and you don't know of the previous owners maintenance. Just think, parts are cheap for these trucks. Granted the 1 ton and 4x4 parts are a little more, but once you have them replaced and work done, it will last many years. Don't be getting discouraged just yet. :grd:

Most likely a bad canooter valve and broken down blinker fluid.

So now that we totally detrailed this thread... How about a response from the OP and let us know if your Tcase / Hubs were unlocked, locked, Tcase engaged etc, so we can further advise. We're not 100% fun, we do take care of business too. Just having fun awaiting your response. :High 5:
