At what mileage should I expect to do some of the major repairs like:
1.h2o pump
2.radiator
3.front axles
4.rear axles

My LC currently has 145k and needs some maintenance pretty quick here. It's due for trans fluid and then yes, the front axles rebuild.

1-When it starts to leak-maybe 200k miles

2-100k is safe, I replaced at 120k

3-Knuckle service every 60k, wheel bearing repack every 30k

4-Wheel bearing repack every 30k, though many go longer.
 
The radiator and h2o pump seem fine, neither overheating issues nor leaks. I'm mostly worried about the front axles. The service, hrrrrm, hasn't been done, like ever:rolleyes:, and I have 145k on the clock. The left knuckle seal is leaking a little bit; pretty sure I'm gonna find some trouble in there. Add the rear's to that as well. I'll dig into those as soon as the starter contacts get here and I get that fixed up.

Btw, which manual would be better to get, Bentley or the factory one.
