Just turned over 300,000

Just turned 300,000 miles. Is there anything ya'll would do as far as maintenance goes, besides the routine stuff. The only thing I have ever done to it is a water pump, starter, injection pump at 68,000, thermostat, and apps. Just replaced the rear end. She's pulled a trailer everyday of her life, but the rear end is my fault, was pulling stumps out with her. Still has the original transmission. Been one hell of a truck. And still runs like a scalded dog.

My rad in the 02 started to leak the other day. I just installed 3rd gen brakes and new steering linkage on mine. I blown my rear diff a few years ago, I used to have a dana 70 with disk. I currently running a dana 80 out a 95 dodge now with drums. Was an easy swap, just had to cut the rear driveshaft.

I have 345000 on mine and I'm the original owner. Just in the process of putting a bumper and new head lights into the old girl.

The wife just got a new car, so I guess I will be shooting for 500,000. Be pretty sweet to drive a truck with that many miles. Take care of her and she'll take care of you. Truck that is!
