Congratulations, your truck has reached a milestone. Can you tell us what repairs, if any, you have had so that we can know what to expect. I'll bet not many Ford and Chevy's get that far.

I BOUGHT THE TRUCK AT 160K SO I DONT KNOW THE WHOLE HISTORY. I DO KNOW THAT THE STARTER WAS NEW WHEN I GOT IT, AND THAT I HAVE PUT ON AN ALTERNATOR. OTHER THAN THE PERFORMANCE STUFF AND THE GOOD transmission THE MOTOR IS TOTALLY STOCK AND RUNNIN GOOD. THE FACTORY TURBO I TOOK OFF WAS IN PERFECT CONDITION.

I HAVE ALSO CHANGED OUT THE FACTORY U JOINTS IN THE REAR SHAFT(AT 197K)AND THE FRONT ONES ARE STOCKERS BUT ARE ON THE AGENDA. I HAVE REPLACED BOTH FRONT SIDES BALL JOINTS AND 4WD U-JOINTS/SEALS.



OH YEAH BOUT FORGOT--I REPLACED THE FACTORY SPEAKERS CAUSE THEY WERE BUSTED :-laf :-laf



GREAT TRUCK OVERALL AND BOY THIS THING WILL FLY!!! JUST RECENTLY WENT TO THE LOCAL 1/8 MILE AND IT RAN A BEST OF 8. 66-SPINNING ALL FOUR TIRES OUT OF THE HOLE!! WITH MORE PUMP TWEAKS AND BETTER TIRES I KNOW IT WILL GO INTO THE 7. 90'S(1/8) WHICH EQUATES INTO ROUGHLY MID 12'S IN THE . 25.
