Looks pretty nice! Make sure the timing belt has been changed at 90k mile intervals because our V8s are interference engines. Looks like your transfer case input shaft seal has a leak, but not bad. Mine has the same thing with no issues. Also be sure to cycle into and out of 4lo to make sure it engages and disengages. Check the sunroof rails for corrosion, as well as the lower and upper front ball joints/tie rod ends. Take a peek on the LCAs to look for signs of oil from the steering rack too. Body mounts are somewhat not super important, but couldn't hurt. Check the CV shaft boots for tears, and for specs of sparkle on the dip stick and you'll be golden.

221k on my '04 V8 and it has only been in the shop once in the past 5 years. Granted, I bought mine when prices were higher at $11k hah, wish I would have waited.
