    Been thinking about looking a VHD axle forward,in particular this one.
    https://www.truckpaper.com/listings/trucks/for-sale/203912689/2008-volvo-vhd64ft400
    Volvo D13 engine-485 HP
    Eaton-Fuller 18-speed manual (very rare,Volvo doesn’t make them like that anymore-as of 2022 all VHD trucks come equipped with the I-Shift transmission,with or without crawler gears as an option).
    3.91 gears
    637,647 miles(a lot of miles but spread out over 14 years)
    14,600 lb rated steer axle
    46,000 lb rated drive axles
    What are some key maintenance items or other issues one should look out for on a VHD of this vintage? Any info would be appreciated!
