My truck is a 04.5 i haven't had any major problems with it yet. 131000 miles :w2: i have a programmer cold air intake 4" straight pipe, and going to add an air dog 150 next week, kinda worried about the lift pump is why i am replacing it, check your front wheel bearings to, when they start to go out you don't have much time to replace :argh: mine went out at about 110,000 miles.

Check the idler/tensioner pulley on the belt. I had the plastic wheel come apart on mine at about 130k.

I didnt really have any major problems till after I was way over 200k and even then it was just 1 injector then a few weeks later the num 6 fuel line busted. The biggest prob I had was the front wheel bearing hubs, went thru those about every 75k on the dot.

So really not very many people have been having injector problems i am running a baldwin pf7977 is the stock housing now maybe in a couple of days ill get a 2 micron filter setup.
