[QUOTE="DILLARD000, post: 1045234, member: 74901"] AutoMobiles vs AirPlanes: if something critical fails in your Auto, just get safely off the road & then worry about getting home; if something critical fails in your Plane, gravity takes over & .... Well I just don't like flying. Swapping working used parts for unknown new parts is always a judgement call; study up on typical component life\reliability & common failures items, then make your best educated WildAssGuess\WAG; that's all anyone can do. For the V6~4.0L~SOHC Engine + 5r55e Tranny + 1354 TransferCase + ... there are certainly some known failure items & known component lifetimes which can be fairly well predicted & remedied before they leave you stranded. Doing good routine maintenance & mechanical repair work is always crictical. [/QUOTE]
