Is this a question for anyone or Bill specifically?


If anyone can answer, then I would definitely say "no". I say this because parts wear but do not inherently become weaker with age or mileage. If it's going to break, it was going to break anyway.

For me, it really depends on previous usage and maintenance. With the manufacturing tolerances of today's drivetrain parts, I wouldn't hesitate to power-up a vehicle with 200K on it. Now, a 60s-80s vintage car or truck, 100K would be about the limit.
