Do you agree doing injectors and glow plugs every 100K or so? It seems to be that way. What oil make did you use? I've ben using Shell Rotunda with a bit of Liquid Moly.

Wouldn't hurt to do injectors and glow plugs every 100K. Another thing you can do is pull the injectors and pop test for correct pressure, check spray pattern, and no peeing every 25K. Do the same with glow plugs to inspect and power them up. If they look good, I put them back in.
Did you torque the injector halves to spec? Was the injectors rusty inside? That may have been why they leaked and required lapping.
