thanks for the input. I have changed every fluid to Royal Purple. I did the spark plugs a few weeks ago. I doesn't have any real signs of wear. I even did the compression check on it and came out good. I have a tick as well. I will just wait for her to blow and buy a new engine. I do need some new tires I will probably just go with the Nittos if I can find the size I want. I was looking for 315/70/17. I think that is about a 35 it looks like the will fit without a lift.
We all have the "tick", it's nothing to worry about. Mine has done it since day one, although when I changed to RP oil it did quiet it down a good bit. Have personally seen a Hemi with 210k miles on it and according to the owner, it's ticked from day one.

Does anyone know if I need to lift my truck to fit 315/70/17. If so I guess I will have to go a size smaller. I hit a bump the other day and got the death wobbles doing 73mph. That was a bad time to figure out I need a new steering stablizer shock.
