Introduction

Hello everyone. I wanted to introduce myself to the forum. Just joined recently.

I just purchased a 1997 Club Wagon HD Chateau with a 7.3 Powerstroke and a Class V hitch. It came with a large folder of maintenance records from the previous owner. Seems to have been well taken care of. It has 184,500 miles.

Hope I can be of service to the forum, I have learned a lot so far from reading the posts.

Should there be anything you might suggest as far as maintenance, fuel economy or improvements that have worked for you, please feel free to share them.

I may need rear brakes (drum) and some front suspension work, but I'll have to do an inspection to verify. I usually purchase from Rock auto, but am open to others that you use that have more parts available for our type vehicle.

Thanks

Francesco
