Pretty much. I bounced around between three different techs before i picked who I wanted to do the job. We did three oil changes over 1000 miles to check for metal. Plus oil analysis. Almost all the seals and rubber gaskets were replaced. Transfer case case and front dif was drained, transmission drained and solenoids changed and valve body seal changed. The the suspension was pretty much completely replaced with the exception of the struts added Dinan spring. High flow cats were also added. Once he got in the bottom of the motor he didn’t see a need to change out the rod bearings. We had two s63 motors the the shop for rod bearing issues recently. They were were because of long oci or oil being contaminated.
