    Who’s the rookie here now. :)))

    Just got the timing belt and bearings, water pump, fan bracket bearing and all that stuff done yesterday and did my
    valve cover gaskets 3 weeks ago.

    You might need a new throttle body gasket too. I did

    Nice! Now we've got the real Wheelers and dealers up in here.

    I'll definitely be replacing the Tbody gasket. Also have a new fuel filter, set of plugs, and plug wires on order. I'm debating relocating my oil filter while I'm in there.

    While I grant you the mileage on the truck, what is the actual mileage on that engine? Didn't you have to have it replaced at 150k or something?

    Cool, every 100,000 I replace all that stuff all at the same time.

    Make sure you replace that DAM rear diff valve too just to be safe.

    Haha, nope 490,000 popped a head gasket, was cheaper to put a used motor in instead,
    So 1st motor had 490,000 and the newer motor had 100k and I have added another 100,000 to it

    All those miles from me as I’m the original owner still

    Rear diff valve was thrown in the trash. Diff breather is in the engine compartment now.


    It's the filter in the corner behind my Aux. Fuse box.

    Just curious, why did you run it all the way forward to the engine compartment and not just put a small breather in the fuel door area?

    I'll be running the trans breather, Tcase breather, and front diff breather to that breather filter when I do the 4x conversion in a couple weeks. Wanted them all in one spot.
