    thanks man!!! the owner wasnt too nice to the truck as far as maintenance goes...........but im fixing all that now!! cleaned the throttle body today, and ran seafoam thru the brake booster line, changed the oil to mobil1 5w30, changed the fuel filter......and it had alotta nasty rusty looking shit coming outta it....so that was definitely needed. also......greased every grease zerk i could find under the truck.........they were dry as a bone!!! i still gotta put new mobil1 in the diffs and transfer case, do the deckplate mod and put new spark plugs in.

    i hate people who dont take care of their vehicles maintenance!!!:mad:

    Thanks Rio:)-you know, a LOT of major nightmares happen with these trucks for one or all of these reasons:
    1. owner is ignorant
    2.owner is negligent
    3. owner is cheap
    I bet that last guy was all 3! He is one of those people who never put any real care into the truck because he trades them off every 4-5 yrs! So in comes Will who takes that truck to the next level...the best it can be:) more power to you buddy:D

    Do you know if the timing belt is a belt or chain? I'm nearing the time to change mine & would be more proactive if it was a belt.

    Thanks,
    Sean

    The 4.0 1GR-FE is a Timing Chain. The 3.4 is a Belt. :)
