t-case, hubs, bearings, check for bad oil or water in oil, diff fluids, tranny fluids, u-joints. There are a number of things that go bad on these trucks but the love for them keeps us from caring about the parts...besides...with the usual high mileage, things will go bad sooner or later. Just look through the forum and from the thread titles you can probably get a good idea of what the common issues are. enjoy and WELCOME!!!
