[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1833504, member: 18945"] Hard to say about what parts to replace before install. Some engines have 1 or 2 plugs that are a beatch to get to once installed so yes! on those. Radiator hoses may be a yes too if yours are old. Other 'consumables' like heater hoses and wiring harness shielding you'll just have to look at. Look close at gasket interfaces (valve cover-timing cover-oil pan) for signs of leaking and of course, front/rear oil seals areas for evidence... water pump weep hole too (they still have those?) Freeze plugs need a good eye cast on them too. Look it over [B]good[/B]. Ya never know what damage might incur when a yard pulls one out, or may have happened during the accident that put it in a yard. [/QUOTE]
