06. 5.9. 48re.

I bought it at 80k miles and it's got 160 now.

So far, I've rebuilt the front end--new ball joints, u-joints, wheel bearings, control arms; the whole power steering system replaced--newer upgraded pump, steering box, hydro boost brake booster, added a steering brace and upgraded to the newer steering linkage. Replaced trans with a built unit--clutches, valve body, billet input shaft, billet converter. Added fuel filtration to 2 micron, single driveshaft to replace the 2-piece unit and eliminated the carrier bearing, and added a smarty jr tuner.

All said and done, about $10k in work. Most of it done myself. I didn't do the trans build. I paid a shop local to me who specializes in 48re--firepunk diesel in plain city Ohio.

98% daily driver; but I do tow and take it deep into the woods off road for firewood collection.

If I can keep the body from rusting away, I plan on this being the last truck I ever buy.
