Default Hello!

Hey all!
names Rando from Schomberg Ont
currently own a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the mercedes 3.0L turbo diesel... stock
use to have a lifted 2007 Rubicon that i dreamed of putting the 3.0L in but alas it was stolen on the 7th, so i am currently looking to get a truck.

dont know what to get... been raised on chev/gm, but kinda got the cummins itch...

looking at an LB7 tomorrow with 140,000 kms ... comes with a loaded 2002 chev... the price is right but i have been told to stay away from the LB7... the injectors havent gone yet... is it a ticking time bomb? once the injectors are changed is it more reliable? should i avoid it like the plague or is it a case of dont believe everything you read/hear

thanks guys

I don't think the injectors are quite as bad as they sometimes are made out to be...
