I'm not too sure about it, but its been difficult to find one. I just hate to replace or rebuild the engine and dump money into it. I'd like to have it as a beater for hunting and off-roading..

Would just need to make sure the engine and suspension, etc. is decent.

Whattya think? These are fuel injected too, right?

not to shabby, looks like it would be good for what you need it for as long as your alright with the price, really thats what matters. but no the b2600 is not fuel injected, only the b2600i and the 92-93 b2200s are, i had one just like that but an extended cab and it was not fuel injected. give him a call and see what you can work out and make sure everything is good, if you wanted you could even swap out the metal to 2wd stuff and use the 4x4 on your truck anyway good luck man.

he may have left off the i when he placed the add. it looks like from the pic it has the bubble hood. no sure but i think only the fi models had the bubble hood. to me it looks like a pretty good price

you know what it does kinda look like a bubble hood and an I on the fender, dident look to much read the ad and that was about it lol

Hmm, yea, well, I will see about this. Too bad it was'nt extended cab.

I was kinda thinking about swapping the sheetmetal, but the bed would be 2wd afterwards anyway and that IMO would look tacky.

And of course, many would think it would be blasphemey to leave the 4wd sheetmetal on it and off-road it... lol!

if it were me, id swap the metal seeing how if you want 4x4 metal u get it and it doesent matter the metal on the 4x4 because its probably going to get beat up and such, so....

I think all the 2600 after 88 are 2600i's. And not all 92-93 b2200 were fi ether. as for the truck I would grab it up. drive the hell out of it but try and keep it from getting dented to hell and back. then if the motor blows sell or take the 4x4 sheet metal and build you a 2wd with 4x4 sheet metal. The 2600 motor is just like any other you take care of it and it will last a long time.

the truck does have the bubbble hood and by the looks of it the price is danm good. I would grab it in a minute if I was closer and there were few B2600 4x4 made with out injection. All the 4x4 ones I have had and worked on and seen have all been 2600i's

make sure this guy has a title for the truck befor you buy.... with a punched out ignition makes me think why its punched out.... looks like a great truck for swaping hood, fenders, and bed.... i go pick up my 2600i here in a lil bit

I know hat if the guy agrees to go lower, it is his fault. But, you guys think the price is good? I was thinking about letting my sister use it when I'm not. Her subaru has been in like 2-3 wrecks and still runs but its going to poo out soon, I'm sure..

Yea, instead of getting a new ignition for it, I think I'm going to do push button ignition for it.

I'm gonna give the guy a try and see what he says. My only concern is that fuel inejction parts are more expensive and harder to come by, right?
