Mine is up over 300K miles. One thing I recommend is for you to check into replacing the differential fluid. It doesn't hold up well outside of normal interval changes. When my car had the same miles as yours, I checked it and it was blue/gray. I added cheap gear oil and Lucus additive, drove it 50 miles and changed it again. Repeated until clear. Finally, I put in Amsoil w/FRPP friction modifier with 3:73 gears.
I keep all the fluids clean though. I have been using Mobil1 automatic trans fluid in the transmission and in the power steering sump for a long, long time.
