Congratulations, Victor! I commend you for taking care of your tuck well
enough to go 200k. I'm sorry to hear the tranny didn't last, as I'm also
running an NV-3500 and would like to think it was going to last at least
200k w/o anything more than fluid changes, but it doesn't look too good! Is
your truck still in good shape? How about some pics so we can see how it's
doing? Do you drive your truck hard, or are you pretty easy on it? What
about towing/ hauling?

I passed the 200,000 mile mark today in my 1995 CC.
That 318 Magnum is a durn good engine.
I had to replace a few things since I picked it up new 7 years ago but
nothing major and it's still going strong..
I replaced water pump,fan clutch and radiator, the rear main seal and motor
mounts had to be replaced and that's about it under the hood.
I had the NV3500 rebuilt around 150k miles cause it started whining a
little in cold weather I thought it deserved a look inside.
Good Dakota !!
