[QUOTE="Fullywrecked, post: 779094, member: 16064"] Ive' owned 4 cummins over 200K and the (1) at 218k (2) at 245K and (1) at 279K and not one of them had needed an injection pump yet. The 24 Valves have a problem with the lift pump, when it fails it takes out the injection pump (because it it lubricated by diesel) Easy fix.....put a fuel pressure gauge on it and when it fails shut it off before you do any damage. I am with jobless on this one NV4500 (yes I know about 5 th gear but its a whole lot cheaper to rebuild than a ZF 5 spd) Some say the ZF is stronger but it doesn't get put through the torque produced by a cummins and I have known of quite a few needing rebuilds before 200K:kissmyass: Dana 80 (stronger than a sterling....larger everything):rolleyes: Front Axle D60(uses the same part # ball joint as your Ford HP60) Both have crappy unit bearings (94-up dodge) So I only see a trackbar problem that is easy to fix with a $65 part (lukes link) If you want a good front axle get a 89-93 (Dodge kingpin D60) or a older (non ball joint D60 for your Ford) but fo all the towing duties and 4 wheel drive on snowy roads I have never had a problem with my crappy front axle in My 94-97 POS Dodges Iv'e owned.:corn: If you think you can have a 10 second Dodge Cummins Or Ford or Whatever and still use it for towing duties I think you need to educate your self a little more and get back to us on that. :rolleyes: As for the 7.3.................It would be my second choice for a diesel truck. Most all of them will run over 200K without problems if maintained and I think 350k is not out of the questions if kept up. I wouldn't buy a 6.Slow (because of all the problems they have) and as for the chevies....you can have your alum headed light duty diesel, I'll stick with cast iron, thanks.:stirpot: [/QUOTE]
