Broken LB7 Transfer Case
- Thread starter MaineLB7
- Start date
finnally someone came and looked at this truck. After driving it the guy couldn't get his money out fast enough. I feel as though I may have sold this truck a little to cheap as I ended up taking a 9k loss on a truck I bought 8 months ago. Anyway the truck is sold. And now I see a lesser LB7 on eBay and the bidding is up over 16k. Thanks for your replys guys. I will never buy another diesel again that's for sure. I was afraid it was going to be a maintenance nightmare and I was right. Live and learn I guess.
Sorry you had such bad luck man. I've had 4 and never had any trouble at all. Only injectors on my 2001 model, but it has 300k on it so really not a big deal.
I'm not sure why you took such a loss. These trucks hold their value better than any other pick up.

He took a loss because he paid a premium for the truck to begin with and then ended up needing to spend a small fortune fixing things that go bad ovr the course of 180-some-odd-thousand miles.
I feel bad for you OP. Glad you were able to wash your hands of the truck. Truthfully, it probably was about to be in shape to serve you well for years to come after all the work you did.
Good luck with the 'Vette. :thumb:

Like I said tho, I've only done injectors (once) (did HGs too as a preventive thing) on a 15 year old 300,000 mile lb7. 150,000 miles at or over 550hp....
My 2004 needed nothing in 150,000 miles.
My LMM just got a pitman/idler arm in 110,000 miles. Literally my trucks have been so good to me over the years. I boggles my mind how people have bad luck with them. I have a buddy here that bought one cause he loved mine, said he had nothing but trouble out of it. Sold it within two years. How have I had 4 good one in a row...
Anyways, good luck with the vette.
