40,000 miles & over one year on the road..

Fan Belts = 3
Distributor O-Ring
Spark Plugs  1 set
Dist Cap = 1
Water Pump = 1
Starter = 1
Left Rear Wheel Bearings = 1 set (problem with axle stub being round of
round)
Exhaust System Gaskets = 2
Ignition Switch = 1
X Circuit Relay = 1
Headlight switch = 1
Lower Alternator Bracket = 1
Headlight = 1
Front Turn Signal Lens = 1
Misc exterior Bulbs = 4

Note ... please keep in mind that all the above parts where replaced as
new before the trip began.
