Yes it's been there but as a 2wd, he never used it in the snow/salt environment (he said).
Be skeptical of that. We have a lot of rotted out 4x4s up here, and we have just as many rotted out 2wd's. A good indicator on these trucks usually is the rear wheel well lips, front fenders behind the front tires, and the bottom/backside of the doors. Rust will show there before anything of consequence shows up underneath on the frame.

Thanks for the guidance DT. I will look closely at those areas especially.

Gave a deposit on a '96 x cab 3500 auto A/C. 175k miles. It seems ( to a semi un- trained eye) stock. Stock air filter at least. I will be starting a post on what to do for some MINOR performance up-grade advise from you Diesel guru's. Hope to get advise on some stock tweaking of the fuel system without going crazy.
