[QUOTE="saltbranch, post: 1325176, member: 13181"] What kind of weight are you going to pull? As far as the IDI's go, I have had great luck with the 6.9 and 7.3 pre turbo and with the turbo. They will run forever and are low maintenance in my experience running them in a oil field hot business. I had several go 500k and 1 that I remember with 800k on it. When Ford went to the Power stroke, that's when I went to Cummins. That truck should have 4.10's I would think and pull 12k pretty easily down the road. Another thing to consider on these high mileage trucks is the suspensions. Its often overlooked and it is expensive to rebuilt front ends, replace leaf spring bushings etc. [/QUOTE]
