Thst is good news gor me because i replaced the front bearings, inner outer tire tod ends, cv axle, one brake caliper was stuck just like you said it would be and the other had been replaced a few years ago. Also changed brakes obviously..they are working good and no pull or bad handling like before..but i have squeaky ball joints that for some reason i didnt replace before but my friend and i are doing before inspection (I live in Virginia) which in November. I have budget set so i can change them in August after i attend to my fuel filter and thermostat. The fuel filter is original so yea it makes me.wonder. i couldnt get to it so I'm having a friend with fuel line experience do it for me at his shop on friday before my damn fuel punp goes.
Also put in new plugs wires and a new battery. Ill get better wires for sure and return the old.ones as i keep receipts.
. While there getting fuel filter changed: i will get him to set front 17mm bolt to 94ft/lbs as youve indicated
All fluids good but i havent changed transfer case fluid or fluid in my differentials. Im going to put that on the list as well. Oil good, Coolant good, brake fluid good, tranny fluid good, power steering has that tiny leak i described before but its so slow im putting that off)
The thermostat is the big one stixking out to me.so im doing it on my next day off: saturday
Also I will look at that distributor o ring when i fix the valve cover. But as you've said..all this is moot with a bad stat causing.impending doom.
Once i get the immediate atuff done as well then im going to, for sure, get a new (Gates so i know ive got the best like u said) timing belt
