    I replaced rod & main bearings ony bc I had a low oil pressure issue that we finally tracked down to a loose wire in the dash.
    2016 was a big year for replacing parts, batteries, starter, Davco fuel filter assy., all 6 injectors, trans. and clutch assy., carrier bearing and probably some other items I forgot.

    It's been a very good truck in the 10 years that I've had it, never been on a hook.

    Also had the ECM reprogrammed from 500/1650 to 565/1850. and that really woke up the engine without a decrease in fuel mileage.

    Yes, you might just need the tower replaced, but mine had over 1.4mm so I just replaced the whole trans. & clutch assy.
