Heres the Skinny, Truck in question is a 1986 M1009 Blazer K5.
6.2L DIESEL (new mechanical lift pump, runs strong)
TH400 (likely needs a service with new filter and pan seal, leaking now),
NP208 transfer case (2.6:1 Low gear)
8.5in 10 bolt front and rear axles (3.08 gearing, functioning gov locker rear)
33in Goodyear MT/R tires, still very good tread up front, REAR SET ARE BRAND NEW, with kevlar sidewalls.

THE BAD
- hit a jersey wall at roughly 35mph durring snow-ma-geddon a few years ago, front end damage includes driver side fender, door, and forward frame rail. likely something in the steering needs to be fixed as the steering wheel is off center since the accident. But I drove it that way for a year until the state inspection came due and the inspector laughed me out of his shop.
- Hood popped open and buckled so it wont close proper.
- truck sat for a few years (but was started and moved often) and I didnt know about draining the water separator on the fuel tank, so it rusted through and will need to be replaced.
- the normal rust for these things, rear tailgate, rockers, front floorboards, rear wheel wells. etc.

Included Extras
- set of BDS 6in lift springs
- GM-3 turbocharger with necessary intake parts. (still need crossover pipe for exhaust setup.)
- dual optima red top batteries.
- Longer rear drive shaft from a M1008 pickup to be used when 6in lift is installed.
- replacement driver side fender and door

Extra cost options available.
- spare injection pump and injectors from an M1008 - $400
- set of 4 H1 military beadlock rims (for 8 lug axles) - $100
- Set of 4 super swampers 38", low tread, but perfect for re-grooving. - $100

I am selling the truck because I quit my high paying job, and where I'm at now wont allow me to fix the truck proper. I dont want it to rust away into a total piece of junk. I love this truck, its been nothing but fun. Its been camping, driving to the beach, tailgating, and with the top off is a helluva lot of fun. The truck will never be a show queen, but could be brought back to street legal status with a few parts and elbow grease, and is an absolutely perfect cantidate for someone looking to build a trail rig. Just looking to get it to a good home, sucks to sell it though. But when it dumped diesel down the driveway, the parents said it had to go.

Posted locally on craigslist, but dunno if theres much of a market for it around here. Asking price for all the "included" stuff in one lump is $2900

Email preferred, but feel free to call or text at a reasonable hour. I can also provide pictures of anything you want upon request.

Pictures of the vehicle, and the damage would be helpful.
