Just bought an '06 V8 with 135xxx last week! Feeling like I overpaid but glad to finally have one. Things I checked for:
- Exhaust manifold leaks – believe you'll hear a clicking on startup
- Rust (found a rust free one)
- Timing belt change (seller could not find paperwork but SWEARS it was done at 120k –– I will be looking for stickers as suggested earlier in this thread tomorrow, hadn't noticed any yet!)
- All electrical + stereo working
- 4Lo + Center Diff Lock engaging (found this sketchy to try as pretty sure you're not supposed to use this on pavement)
- Fuse boxes for any aftermarket installations -- no rats nests, etc.
I don't have buyers remorse yet! Just ordered some JBA high caster upper control arms yesterday, looking forward to getting my suspension dialed in to clear a slight tire rub on 285/70/17s. Currently running Bilstein 5100s front + rear with Bilstein springs in the back & OEM springs in the front. Need to get my 15 posts in so I can get some proper advice on that, lol.
