Known issues:
- AC has a slow leak; I charge it as needed (1-2x a summer?)
- Power steering rack is very slowly weeping, has not worsened over ~5 years
- Rear locker wiring doesn’t work: New OEM Toyota actuator bench tested fine and is in the truck (used actuator previously installed is available if you want it, also bench tested fine), but the wiring does not work properly. Switch disconnected to avoid over-traveling the actuator. It should work with existing parts when fixed but there are no guarantees.
- One significant dent on front driver’s door pre-dated my ownership
- Many little dings/scratches – this was not a pavement queen!
