Thanks to all for your advice and input.
Axle: 3.73LS I'll see how she does.... it will depend on weight of what I end up purchasing. If 5er, I may change out to 4.30. If TT under 8K, I may stick with what I have.
NOTE: 400 mile return trip resulted in 14.4 mpg!!!
Planned Major service I will perform myself:
Spark plugs ordered and planning install this weekend.
Install new COP boots/springs
Trans service
Coolant change out
New Fuel, air filters, crankcase element
New Gates Fleetrunner (Green) serpentine drive belt
Planned Mods:
Has a factory trans temp gauge in dash but I may go with a ScanGaugeII and install it over rear view mirror with a Blend Mount.
Trans cooler....6.0L diesel trans cooler is what I have read to be the most desired and bolt on.
Double Din stereo with Apple Car Play
