I don't really see how the 24v would be more prone to cracking than a 12v, other than it has 20hp and 40 lb-ft. over the 12v in stock trim. Maybe its because the 12v only had the 53 for a half year run, whereas the 24v had it for 3+ years, and at that point, you're just playing the odds.

clawson, that is a nice truck, but in in NH thats in kentucky..... and its got a lil too much work for me to be using as a DD...... specially since this will be my first diesel, and im admittedly Diesel RETARDED..... i would much rather start from the basics and gain my knowledge that way.
you guys have been great on the info, thanks Tate, and you do make a very valid point of the 12v's only running the 53 for only 1/2 a year... thats something i will have to keep in the back of my mind when it comes down to deciding on what truck
