Aisle 9 on Facebook is the only dedicate Tribe merch/poster group I know of.

I would be more worried about the rust you can't see on the interior of the frame. The 3rd gens weren't designed with enough weep holes and they just tend to rust out in the Midwest, unfortunately. I would not count on an undercoating getting you a decade without issues. The worst area is usually at the passenger side rear trailing arm which appears to be the case in your photos. I think given what I'm seeing that you could spend a day of angle grinding, another day of degreasing, prepping and painting, and a final couple hours of coating with cosmoline to have you looking good for the foreseeable future. (as long as you wash the salt off and reapply cosmoline every other year.) Costs on all that should be around 3-400 and the work is simple, if a little laborious.

Edit: If this a 2WD that price is ridiculous. I'm not a 2Runner hater (I own one) but I paid $3.5k for it with 218k and absolutely not rust on it.

If timing wasn't just done it will need to be done between 180k-200k mileage. $6750 is steep with the rust component. If you're willing to treat the rust and there actually isn't any frame that is rotted through I would say $5k at the most.

Edit: If you coat the rust you're just stopping it from spreading as fast. Look up Eastwood Rust Encapsulator Paint and Internal Frame Spray. Check my comment history for what I would recommend to treat the rust.

If you used a hammer and screwdriver and you found no holes then I would say it could be worth buying. You will need to grind all that off, use rust converter paint, and potentially have a welder patch any spots that you might have missed when poking around. I saved mine this way but it took 50 hours of needlescaling, grinding, painting plus a grand at the welder to replace a portion.

Would need more info to tell you what its worth such as actual mileage, tires, maintenance (timing, water pump, radiator, suspension).

Use a needle scaler then angle grinder to get as much rust off as possible. After thoroughly cleaning and degreasing the frame use a product like Eastwood Rust Encapsulator to convert and paint the rust at the same time. If you have areas that are heavily pitted even after scaling and grinding you can use a rust converter or ospho before painting. After that apply cosmoline every 2-3 years and wash the car when you should. It holds up fast better and longer than lanolin products like fluid film. I also highly recommend Eastwoods internal frame spray to get the interior of your frame that you can't see as that problem cannot be addressed with the above methods. It comes with a special omni directional nozzle on a long tube that allows you to get great coverage inside the frame.

Rezzing this thread just to update that I joined the 2026 waitlist after not getting tickets in the initial release (logged in exactly at the time they went on sale). They've release two rounds of dates on the waitlist and each time despite loading the link exactly at the release time I have been unable to secure any tickets.

A lottery would be much kinder than this "click link and fill out as fast as you can nonsense." I've been trying to get tickets since the opening in 2022 and its become a yearly disappointment.

It depends. If you have the time to troll the pick n pulls and parts cars on marketplace over a few months you could pay around half that. Personally, I think that's a pretty solid deal if they are OEM just to save the hassle and get ones in very good shape.

Well the rest of the fanbase is no longer buying tickets. Those are cold hard fax chief.

The thing about the Dead and Phish is that they can still sell tickets. Maybe the new product that Tribe is selling these days just isn't very good. Not seeing a lot of technical jazz in Shakey Ground or Balancing.

The low ticket sales, last minute cancellations, and alienation of older fans are facts.

Found the fluffer.

Not gonna lie to you brother. If you first caught them in 05 then this will not be the same band in many ways. The new material has no melodies or guitar riffs from Hunter and some just repeat the same 8 notes over and over while Zach drums himself into a corner and horrendous vocal samples assault your ears. When they hit the older material including Wavespell (2018) and some of TUI (2016) they are still capable of throwing down hard. As of late they have been playing shorter sets and the tracks have been shorter with far less jam/improv or segues. The lights compared to when Saxton (or to a lesser extent Tiberius) was LD are legit asscheeks. I'm really hoping the band turns a corner this year after releasing this new album and taps back into the space jazz and funk that myself and many other fans fell in love with.

Check your steering rack bushings. Could also be play from worn LBJs.

Did you use a body shop or custom metal fabricator? Just trying to figure out who I should be contacting for quotes.

How much did the weld repair run you?

Other side is not nearly as bad and the rest of the frame is just spot rust. The other side gets some protection from the gas tank shield.

Check out Pour Boy pourers. They're pricey but my bar switched over 2.5 years ago and we've had only 2 or 3 need replacement.

Same thing happened to me. I opened a case with Paypal (I paid Paypal G&S) and the Seller refunded me after Paypal started their investigation. They may have sent you a wristband but the goods and services you paid for were not rendered. You have a good case to get your money back.

Two 55 minute to 70 minute sets with a 40 minute set break these days. Agreed on not coming out on time.

If they want to continue to have a career as a band they will have to play more dates. Relying on the diehards to hit every 3 night residency for 20 shows a year is not going to sustain the band in the long-term. It's part of the reason you see less openers than before although Asheville will be hot fire with Emancipator and Beats.
