If this helps, which I doubt it will because I've been pretty unhelpful as of late, here it is..
I own a 3/4 ton Yukon XL 4wd. I haven't had any problems with mine yet, as of 2 1/2 years except for the tranny going out once.
I have quite a few friends with the 97-99 2500 4WD either lifted or not and the only problem with them is that for some the trannies keep falling apart. besides that though, no problems.
Hope this helps.

Â Other than 13mpg (which is better than the 11mpg my 98" Chevy dually got), it's been great, no problems. Â If you get a 6.0 gas, check out Westers.com for their chip, it's getting some great press at pickuptrucks.com for 1mpg minimum improvement and for REAL added performance. |
When I had my 86 Chevy dually, I put an overdrive in it and with a little bit of tuning I got 15mpg running 75-80 with it. Now I have a 73 and I plan on the same thing but I'll probably be able to squeeze a little better mileage yet!..

What the hell, sorry to leave ya hangin there GFR. Better late than never  Nope no dually, F350 crewcab single rears. I four wheel some and an old timer said one time that a dually can get stuck on a cow pie   Cool on the street not so in the mud/snow.

Not to worry KC Those are good trucks, a friend had one of those, ran the shit out of it on and off road, never missed a beat. On the other hand since I'm not into off roading or cow pie's, mud or snow! I don't have to worry about those issues!. but for towing and comfort, can't beat a dually . The old timer is right, duallys ain't worth shit off road, even with 4 wheel drive!..
