RE: Oil sample not looking good.
Changed the oil today. Around 11k miles. Switched it to Rotella with a gallon of gear oil. Sending a sample again to see how it looks on this shorter interval.

Oil pressure was never low, always above 25 hot low idle but never over 50 hot or cold. No sits about 45ish. Not much different so I'm hoping I caught it early.

How much would those bearings take a beating from lugging? If they do take a good amount I'm willing to bet that's a lot of the issue since this truck was not speced to pull the weight that I do.

Changed the fuel filters as well even tho the Davco wasn't even half full but the filter was black.

Going to order a new air filter housing. It's slightly warped but I think the biggest issue is one of the bolts broke the plastic that holds the two pieces together. It has some dust on the inside just past the filter.
