The motor ran pretty good. I had installed a new head gasket shortly after buying the truck because the old one blew out(almost five years ago now). When I had it apart I did notice that it had .020" over pistons in it, so I know that it has been rebuilt at some point. I had been driving it back and forth to work for awhile, I do suspect that the head gasket was leaking again, because every once in awhile it would leave an oily residue on the shop wall when you started it. But overall it ran pretty good, never did make me walk home. The tranny, was decent, leaked a little, but it shifted good and was reasonably quiet in every gear except third, which I hear is normal(I don't know I've never rode in a PW, besides mine) PTO goes with it, and is functional, I've never taken it apart but it pulled two Ferds and the truck itself up a snow covered hill last spring. I'd like to get $700 for everything, I'm also looking for a PTO for a NP435 (I'm putting a V8 in my truck) so if someone had one of those, (Chelsea 352) we might be able to just swap.
