Highest mileage first gen

My situation was either fix head gaskets at 485,000 or replace the motor, I decided with a motor
I found in a rolled truck that had 100,000 miles on it and I could hear it running and verified the miles
for 1500.00, this was my best decision, come to find out the heads were cracked and would have cost a lot more the other way and would have still had 480,000 miles on the old engine. Came with injectors,
alternator wiring harness power steering all the extras that I just swapped over

 

Thanks, it's a work in progress at 515,000 now,

 

Turned 198k on my 2.7L 4 door

Love it

Hope it lasts till 300k

Not a mark on her
Immaculate inside and out

 

I got my truck with 185k on it. Really hoping it will last till at least 300k. What's the secret? Religious oil changes every 5k?

 

Yeah i probably will do just that ..find another motor n swap. I really want to then rebuild the original motor on a stand in the garage . ..did v8s for years.Put the original motor n new clutch n go to 1 million . ..replace ballballjoints .at 750k. .frame...me.

 

Im at 417k mi...I was told by a service dept wizard oil every 5k n factory filter and the timing chain will last beyond 320k. machinist buddy hammered on me about radiator flushes...aluminum head water passages corrode thru. ...check this site! they clued me into balljoint failures ! plugs wires @ 300k n it freshened up the power . dont drop crud into cylinders...vertical plugs...@270k killed a z motor nissan pickup

Oppps

 

My engine is just getting broke in! Still runs perfect with plenty of power! No major issues so far.

 

If my 4 cyl goes 50k more miles and reaches 250k, I will be very happy. Running like a top now.

 

Just breaking mine in, 250k. Runs like it's brand new!

 

292900 on my 01 pre runner 2.7

 

440 on mine and have done nothing major to the motor or trans.
also this truck has the factory wheel bearings in it and factory starter!!!

 

How long have you had the supercharger on that same engine?

 

I have 85k on a 1999. I have a long way to go.

 

it was only supercharged for 20 k
I kept getting a lean code so I removed it.

 

No a lot of miles still thought I would share
