Default New Dodge Fan!!

Hi guys, This is my first post here on this site. I have been a Ford Fan for many years and have owned nothing but fords. I test drove a Dodge ram the other day with a 5.9L, and let me tell you, the power and the exhaust note these Dodge rams make, changed me over from a ford guy to a Dodge guy!!

Now as for my question, I stopped by my local dodge dealer to see if I could purchase a used dodge truck. They have a 2001 Dodge ram Quad Cab, Short Bed, 4x4, 5.9L, automatic, Electric Blue in color, with the sport pkg., it already has a 6" lift and 35" tires, and Stone-Crusher wheels.

The asking price on the truck is $17,500. I was wondering if someone could let me know the problem areas on these rams so that I know what to look for BEFORE I buy it. Thanks in advance for your helP!!

plenum gaskets, Overdrive's are the more common failures. With a lifted truck I'd also check the front end specificly the tracbar.
