If you have been pulling trailers with this 4.3 liter and you now have motor problems, transmission problems, transfer case problems, bald tires, and whatever else is going bad after 249K miles, I would cut my losses and run. Seems like you have gotten your money out of this old truck. I see lots of 4 and 5 year old full-size trucks with 90 to 100K miles on them selling in the $3500 to $5000 range. You will have way more than that invested in your old truck that will continue to throw parts from here on out. Looked at a 99 Dodge standard cab the other day with a 318, auto, fully loaded with a lift kit and mags and tires for $3900. I bought a 99 GMC full size standard cab two years ago with 105K miles on it for $5000. It was immaculate and still is. I just put tires on it but that is the only money I have thrown at it other than routine maintenance. My son drives it back and forth to Murray State University, about 5 hours from the house. You got your money"s worth out of that little Chevy, now I would move on. Just my two cents worth.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
