WOW. That is impressive, and it's still light outside!! Where did you buy the bar from? I've seen a bunch of "cheaper" light bars opposed to the $2000 one's, so curious what you got. Might have to add this to the to do list, gets dark here in Harnett County. Edit: Just saw you in NC. Want ...

I used an allen key, use the small right angle, and had a philips head that attached to the allen key.

Was then able to get the screw out, which did open up the bulb area. I found the allen key, philips head at Home Depot.

Mine is pretty bad, and I've been trying 93 gas recently. I get about 15.3 in town and 16.4 on highway. I am not a lead foot, brake pretty early. Max speed on highway is 75 MPH. All is stock with General Grabber AW tires, which I think were from the factory since I will be getting new tires. Any ide...

Hate to revive old thread...

I've searched and can not find an answer. Can I use any type of lug nut? I'd like to replace mine but don't know if there is a certain size. I've looked at summit racing and see some there, but not sure if they would fit correctly. Thanks.

But will I still be able to clean off the magnet at the bottom? I had an '05 Explorer and only way to clean magnet was to drop the pan.

Thanks

Valvoline Maxlife ATF - Clearance

All,
Autozone is no longer carrying valvoline max life atf, so it's heavily discounted to $5 for a gallon jug. Usually $20. I was lucky to get the last one. Might be worth a look if needed.

That's all.

Since I got you, where is the transmission dipstick on 2011. I was told on passenger side near fire wall with a 10mm bolt. It's no where to be found.

Thx

Re: Oil Analysis from Blackstone - High Copper

Yes, first oil analysis. I bought the truck with 23,000 miles on it. It now has 27,800 and change. It had conventional oil from the dealer, and no clue what was used from the previous owner. I use Mobil 1 5w-30 synthetic and Mobil 1 extended performance filter, supposedly good for 15,000 miles. I ch...
