    Hub Kit?

    Hey guys, so a while back I was active on this forum when I had my 89 idi. Now I have a 97 F250 HD 4x4 that I’ve been working on.

    How much is too much?

    So tomorrow I’m going to look at a 1996 F350 with 340000 miles. I want to trade it for my 05 Mustang GT. The guy has 10 years worth of service records and truck is in great shape. Is this too many miles?

    Did I get a good deal?

    So I bought this F350 last week. Its a 1986 2wd dually with 6.9 idi and odo reads 48000 miles. I paid 3k for it. It runs decent but I’m gonna go ahead and put new injectors, IP, glowplugs and fuel pump in it. Just curious if I made an alright deal at 3k.
