It makes a difference to the price if it is leaf or coil sprung in the rear. The coil all round seem to go for at least $2000 more.

Check if 5th gear has shat itself yet before you buy it !

I got my 99 model leaf rear with whinch bar side rails/steps and tow bar with a service history for $20,000 2 years ago. It had 200,000 wen i got it and at 215,000 fifth gear spat out on the way to work without any warning.

Research the threads and you will see that is no cheap easy repair. It is a an absolute c@#t of a job getting it in and out.

Check the gear oil thorughly before purchase!
