Mark,
Thanks for the info. The truck is actually pretty nice. I doubt it would take anyone 1200 hours to put seals in diffs, trans,pto,winch,tcase and axles as well as replace any worn drive gears in same. A frame off restoration is obviously much more labor intensive and the 1200 hours probably is realistic. I only asked the question because any shop that could or has done a complete restoration would probably have the experience to do quality work on the driveline. I am more interested in having the driveline from the engine back checked out. I just bought the truck and although it was VERY overadvertised, I'm not ready to give up on it and sell it for one that has been restored.
Thanks again
John
