DRIVETRAIN — transmission fluid condition, transfer case output seals, front CV boots, diff cover seals front and rear, rear axle tube seals. BRAKES — front caliper condition, rear drums checked for oil or fluid contamination on shoes, brake pedal feel. INTERIOR — floor carpet lifted for moisture or rust, door seals, gauge cluster function, air conditioning. TEST DRIVE if possible — transmission shift quality, steering, clunks or vibrations, 4WD engagement. Deliverable: report with photos and a summary of findings.
