100,000 Mile Cleaning

[KMGZ400]

well my truck just rolled over 100,000 miles yesterday so i cleaned the interior and waxed and cleaned every single possible spot on the truck and as a present for the truck for turning 100k, i just installed a RL 2.5 leveling keys, got new clear corners, just got fresh new firestone transforce HT's, 8000k HID's for the fogs and dumped my exhaust before the axle. id say it looks pretty good for an almost 12 year old truck with 100k on it. the tranny is shifting great, G80 works great, engine is smooth with no ticking or knocking, still runs a 15.8 in the 1/4, with a stock intake and a superchips tune.

 

been a great truck, things that have been replaced so far

 

water pump at 75k

rear brake lines at 50k

rear backing plates rusted out at 80k

both tie rods at 80k

alternator and battery at 50k

tailgate assemble broke at like 60k

front right hub at 100k

its on its 2nd set of front and rear rotors, 2nd set of front pads, and 1st set of rear pads.

u joints at 90k

 

all i can think of

 

 

i really want a new truck, but i dont want to part from this truck and i like having no payments...

Very nice

[redjewel2ss]

keep it 'til the wheels fall off!

 

they don't make 'em like they used to!

 

it should last you at least another 100k before the engine, trans, and/or transfer case needs to be rebuilt

well at the rate i drive, ill have about 160,000 on it in one year and i just dont want something with that high of miles i will probably keep it for about a year.

Sounds like you really use your truck. My 02 has 112k and the only thing I have replaces so far is the shocks and the battery, still on the original brakes.

 

These are tough trucks and I plan on keeping mine for along time especially since we just go a new Acadia for the wife, can't afford a new one for a couple more years.

 

I really need to wash and wax mine. It has been way to long since it has been waxed.
