4x4? Unreliable?

Buy yourself some filtration and extra oil capacity with a WIX 51515, twice the size of the sad little factory thimble, more filter area means less bypassed oil. V-10s are known for sludging up. I have put 250k miles on a '95 V-10 4x4 in the 20 years I've owned it, seen inside of every box on this truck. Good luck, sir.

Will do! I'll try to get some pictures of the current state of things uploaded too - there's definitely body work (low on the priority list) that I'll have questions on! Thank you all again!

​​​​​​​Thanks for the tip on the filter! - I'll definitely get the 51515.
