Re: Preparing my truck for a 1600 mile drive this summer
Change all the fluids than just check u joints, steering parts, brakes, stuff like that. If it dies on the way, it would have died on you in NY. Just give her a good check up and run, people have driven cross country in worse vehicles.
Make your self a boonie box with extra fluids, belts, hoses, fuses, wire/connectors, tape, silicone/glue, jack and tools. I always have a box like that in my trucks, saved my butt a few times on my 90 mile run to work and back.
