Buying a truck I’m i doing it right?

[Rawze]

- How many hours on engine?

- Overhead valve adjustment is due.

- Replace the guts in the fuel pump within the next 6 months or so.

- What is the rear axle ratio?.

- Expected weights you are going to be hauling?

- Is it de-mandated (deleted), and if so ... by Who? ... EGR tune-up + emissions system component tune-up work is likely over-due otherwise.

NOTE: rear structure leaking on only that many miles shows clear signs that engine has been tortured/abused by the driver. - Hence the new clutch as well. That is quite the risky buy when considering this if you ask me. The truck and engine sounds like it has been beaten/abused to he#ll and beyond its whole life from your descriptions so far.
