Awesome info there. :roll: How about "Check for rust in vehicles that have been, or are located near the coast, and also any vehicles that have done work in the mining industry".

A few other things to look at:
- Wheel bearings
- Swivel hub assembly
- Uni joints ($100 a pop there)
- Radius arm bushes
- Bent rear lower arms (if coil)
- Sub-tank fuel pump
- Service history

see if you can find out if 5th gear has been replaced. 2000 was in the short spline era IIRC
