    ^Damn, sexy



    Today I filled my diffs with redline 85-140 and checked every fluid on the truck, good to go.

    I have a weird chirp/squeak coming from the driver front wheel at slow speed and a slight stretching/clunk when turning, going to bring it to my normal maintenance mechanic Tuesday to check it out and have him do a once over on all the important bolts. After that I'll get an alignment that I traded a tattoo for and I'll be ready for Moab!

    Squeak could be from numerous things but I'm wondering if it could be a bushing on your suspension? But that's normally what I look at first. Mine makes a sneak or a click type noise at slow to 30mph range. But that's cause of stock suspension and I know there going bad.

    Might look at those billistien coilovers, and see how they are. Or save up and get LR UCAs and icon extended coil overs. Looking at 2-3" in the front as of lift. And 2" in the rear but I'm good for now on it. Just need the front first is all

    Why 85-140? Doesn't Toyota recommend 75-90???

    $380 for the 2 gallon kit and blood bath color concentrate then probably another $100 for materials to prep the truck

    It's not the bushings, those are a different squeak but not the one I'm talking about lol, I'm thinking wheel bearing


    Ecgs reccomends 85-140, it doesn't matter either way really. I just wanted it in before Moab for the added heat protection.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Because the oil viscosity you use depends on driving style, ambient temperature, and usage, not what's written in a book.
