looks solid from what I can tell in the ad and nothing comes out as unusual for the repairs that have been done. Contact fla crkr 1 ton, as he has a 12v Cummins in his 3500...I know he has worked the crap outta his...he could offer insite to you as for what to look out for as far as the engine and trans goes...

Weak spots first thing...

1. Gauges
2. Fuel system up grades (FASS, AirDog or Raptor)
3. Transmission upgrades
4. Enhancement module

Basic stuff... But I would deal with all weak links first thing...
