(LB7- 300/520, LLY- 310/605, LBZ- 360/650, LMM- 365/660, LML- 397/765) just make sure all reg maintenance is done.if its an LB7 check to make sure the injectors were replaced. dealer put a 10yr/200k warranty on them i think. if the truck has oversized tires check the front end. parts wear out alot faster due to the added stress. if there is/was a tuner on the truck check to see what codes/if any were thrown mainly to see if the trans has been limped. Best post ITT. Repped and thanks. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/if-you-had-to-buy-a-used-diesel-truck-today/261396)._
