Wanted to but didnt get a chance to.

 

This was last week but just got pics uploaded. Was kinda spur of the moment so didnt have tools to disconnect. Still had fun tho

 

Changed my diff fluid front and rear...put in Royal Purple. Damn that stuff is expensive. Was super easy and glad I didn't let the dealership rip me off to have them do it. The only this is that the rear diff seems to be very slowly leaking at what appears to be where the cover seals to the diff housing. It never leaked before, and I did the simple fluid change by just draining and re-filling...not the full change where the covers are removed. So, I really don't know why it would be leaking now. Is the Royal Purple a thinner gear oil than the factory oil? The only other possible thing I can think of is that it's excess break cleaner mixed with the oil that got caught in the diff skid, which I wasn't able to get completely clean. I can tell is't not leaking out of the drain or fill plugs as they're totally dry and I torqued each to 25 ft lb.

Any ideas?

 

Installed the hood mounts for the Hi-Lift Jack. Sorry no pics, it's dark out now. True thoughts from the project...

Rather easy and simple to do, Instructions were pretty good considering you have a whole 6 bolts that can not be put in the wrong place. First mounted jack with base to the left, didn't like it so went back and mounted to the right and it doesn't bother me. With the base on the left it covers the small car area for parking lots. When mounted to the right side it makes no difference due to the angle you look out. Besides if i run over a Honda with that side I will blame the wife, she was on that side spotting.

 

Lift and Tires Done!!!

 

i just did mine 2 weeks ago. i went with lucas, it's about 3-4 $ cheaper than the royal purple. and it still came to $59 bucks at the check out line.

 

So, I already posted what I did this week (TF 2.5 BB and spidertrax 1.5 spacers) but here is a picture... it's getting there.

 

Finally got a nice enough day to install my KC windshield lights!

 

Installed handles everywhere (rear oh sh*t, front seat head rest and A pillar) wife and kids been having trouble since I went to 35's. Also installed the Rugged Ridge evap skid, Daystar hood latches (dam the first time closing is special after installing these), finally got my front bumper hoop installed, flipped the mirror and cup holder mod.








Oh and picked up my new trailer Thursday

 

My futile attempt to stop a spare tire rattle. (I have a feeling it's the hinges and not just the tire movement)
