Hello and welcome!

Not too sure about anything specific to the 3.0L, other than the usual checks for wet stuff coming out of places it shouldn't and make sure there is metal where it should be, and not rust -

Have a chat to Pops and Sumo on here - Surf drivers and divers!

Do you live near the 'Noodle mines'? If so I could give the truck a look over (when you find one) if you like.

'Noodle mines' is in Crumlin or 'Grumlin' as they say on the TV ad. About an hour from Port Talbot, not quite near enough.
