Re: 250k club My 1990 mercedes Benz 300e has a bit over 250000, not sure how much since the odo no longer works, but other than that and the sunroof everything is still cherry on the old girl. |

Re: 250k club 2 Attachment(s) Do you hippies just walk everywhere or something?:mrgreen: 456k on this hog 2008 F-350, 3rd trans, stock bottom end, top was built a second time to make a 650hp tow rig at 300k..... She's still tuned and deleted today. Leaks a little oil but shes butter smooth and paid her dues8) It towed HEAVY for only about 275k of that, hauling what I called the mobile mansion when I was a Lineman. Attachment 339719 Attachment 339720 My King Ranch Fummins was at 375k when I traded it for my 2010 Power Wagon, but only about 100k on the motor. I bought it blown up and threw the cummins in8):lmao:.... Ill try to dig up a pic |
Re: 250k club My 01 Ram 4x4 1500 has 250K +/- Larger than stock tires have thrown off the odometer and speedometer by 15%. Which has gotten me a ticket in the past. I got rid of a '79Yota 4x4 Hilux trail/mud truck a few years back that was pushing 375K. Man I miss that truck!! |
Re: 250k club 258k on my 97 XJ. |
Re: 250k club My 1990 toyota pickup has somewhere around 260k miles. I had to swap out the gauge cluster for one with 300+k on it after mine cropped out. Just blew the head gasket, hast timing chain slap and creeps when in gear and clutch is pushed in. Other than a new clutch I have all the parts to refresh it a bit then hopefully I can sell it! |
Re: 250k club All these posts are making me feel really good about my 93 XJ. I am only at 189k right now, but I know I can get there eventually. My younger brother is about to roll over 300k on his 02 Golf TDI, he delivers pizzas in it (AND his 2011 Golf) and he puts at least 50 or 60k a year on a car. My dad just sold his 95 XJ showing 290k or so and I know the odometer didn't work the first 2 years we owned it and who knows before that. His 96 XJ is showing 220k and we just put a head gasket on it. |

Precisely. The hole causes the loss of coolant resulting in overheating...warped head, blown gasket. The Toyota I built into a buggy done this exact thing...and I know many that have. Many Toyotas have also been bought because they have been given an overinflated value because of all the "last forever" hype. :lol: |

Good lord. My truck was down from the end of march till the middle of July and I just took this pic. :shock: Not bad for only putting 9500 miles on it in the last 2 months. http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/f...psh4olbulz.jpg |
Re: 250k club so you don't re-set the odo after a major overhaul? Just curious- what kind of mileage do you get out of the rest of the drive line before it needs a full rebuild? |
Re: 250k club Quote:
My old engine had an in frame rebuild at about 850k due to lack of proper maintenance. With regular oil changes and a bit of preventative care a 60 series detroit will hit a million without issue at all. My last job picked up an old freightliner like mine that the original owner swore had never been re uilt that had 1.8 million and the way it ran I'd believe it. :lol: A manual trans is good for a million as long as a noobie isn't yanking the stick. I got a 13 speed because the old trans sucked not because there was some thing wrong withe it mechanically. Basically it was like driving a vehicle and skipping from 3rd to 5th. There was a huge hole between 8 and 9th gear and when you only have 1200 usable rpm to play with that really makes the hills your enemy. I still have the original differentials in the truck, one axle got new bearings last season but otherwise they pretty much last forever if their specs are watched so wear is accounted for and adjusted out. |
Re: 250k club A bowtie must admit that this blue oval is impressive. My 97 Z71 I bought with 8 miles recently hit 286k on the original engine. I guess I'm a walking hippie:lmao: Quote:

Re: 250k club 206K On my Tj. Had to have the 4.0 rebuild at 205xxx. Cam was pretty well worn out, and the pistons had so much wear, I can't believe it never broke a piston skirt. |
Re: 250k club Im at 405k miles on a 2000 xterra original engine and trans just regular maintenance and most all highway miles http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...psvijq9vwx.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
