Always check the tranny.and if has been rebuilt, make sure there is paperwork or assume nothing has been done.

Plenum gasket (you can look down through the throttle body into the intake, if there is a ton of oil on the bottom then it needs to be replaced), u joints, transmission (especially if it's an auto) suspension (depending on the age of the vehicle, although this is much more important with 2500 trucks with the Cummins, you should still check) and electrical.
