I just replaced my WP, Thermostat, oil cooler 'O' rings this week after 86k miles
Blades were perfect, no noise, no shaft play. The only thing I could feel different between new and old, the spin on the new was a bit better than the old.

The hose clamps were replaced with Worm gear type but the WP gasket was the original, still connected (2) piece, so this must be original WP.

There seems to be such a large disparity to the longevity of parts from car to car

I'm old school so this new path I've embarked on, preventative replacement, is tough, especially when I pull off what appears to be perfectly good functioning parts that were giving no signs of degradation
