Now only 219,000 on my 91.5 and I lose the thrust bearing on the crank.

At least with that lift you have lots of room to work under there.

I am so glad the engine in mine is out of an automatic. At least some of the 241k on the clock were done with no thrust load on the crank.

Jeez, I have beat on mine quite a bit and just rolled over 300K. I'm staring to worry about the thrust surface.... I guess when I start eating belts....

Mine has the auto tranny

The Cummings guy that is doing the work was amazed to hear that the motor is basicly stock and has an auto

I hope to get the truck back on Monday, is sucks because the truck is in Meza, AZ. and on Tuesday morning I need to start setting an off orad race course in Lovelock, NV. for a race next weekend

Looks like a long night on Monday
