OEM component life expectancy?
Other than the normal consumables like tyres, brakes, clutch, shocks, battery, hoses, etc, what sort of mileage are you getting from your major OEM components, like;
- Alternator
- Power Steering Pump
- Water Pump
- Transmission
- Axle(s)
- Steering Box
- Radiator
- A/C Components
- Engine Mounts

Ive replaced Steering Box and Radiator at 200xxx+ miles. Radiator was my fault, I pulled it out several times and I was not gentle with it. Steering box was an attempt to get slop out but it didn't really help.
I consider water pumps with a 10 pound metal fan on the end of it regular maintenance.
I got 200,000 miles of my original shocks but they were pretty well shot.
