Original transmission, original rear-end. He did put all new belts/pulleys and hoses on it this year strictly as a preventative measure. Other than that, guess he'll just keep driving it until it breaks.

My father in law sold his V10 F250 at about 180k. Original spark plugs, diff, transmission, engine, transfer case. The only real work done was a front end rebuild at about 100k. Still ran and drove great despite being used as a work truck and tow rig.
