99 Yukon Expected Repair Issues ?

I own a 99 Yukon, 41,000 miles. Have not had a single repair issue, so far. Got it used at 26,000 miles. What are some of the "usual" things that start to go wrong that I should watch for?

Thanks in advance.

I'll be interested in this too because I have the same truck with the same mileage. The only repair I've done was replace the idler pulley on the serpentine belt. I think I have a coolant leak (see recent thread) but I'm not sure. I upgraded the stock shocks to heavy duty Billsteins because I tow a travel trailer.

Some common repairs:

intake manifold gasket leaks block heaters leak (if so equipped) front axle seals leak front axle vent comes loose and leaks ps pump shaft seal leaks front brake pads wear out fairly rapidly rear brake shoes are often replaced by techs that aren't aware that the leading brake shoe comes paper thin, brand new from the factory. engine oil cooler lines leak engine oil filter adapter gaskets leak front and rear pinion seals often leak rear axle seals often leak idler arm and pitman arms develop play at the ball joint end water pumps leak

Other then that, pretty good vehicle.
