    This is the best I could do tonight so not very good, literally just got done 40 minutes ago. Waited for the heat to subside and lost daylight.

    First one is still light out but drivers side still stock. Second is both sides done and using a small spotlight to hit the front wheel well. I'll post some better ones in the morning or afternoon.

    Change the oil in my transmission to MT-90. It went good, got the drain and fill bolts removed and a nice steady stream without a mess into my drain pan. Then a massive gust of wind blew that steady stream right into my face and gave me a gear oil bath :puke:

    On a positive note the MT-90 really quieted down my transmission. My 1st gear light throttle take off rattle is gone and the gear box is in general quieter.

    The side panels of the cab and the base panel are pinched and spot welded together.

    They aren't very noticeable if the trucks have steps or sliders, otherwise you can see them pretty easily.

    Changing the trans fluid already on a '14? What is the scheduled interval anyway? How many miles do you have? Also, on a '14 you shouldn't have a trans rattle. I'd be taking it right back to the dealer.

    After a long while, I finally bit the bullet and got the Bilstein 6112s and 5160s through Headstrong Off-Road! So far so great!

    No idea what the actual interval is, but I've got 17400 on it now. Rattled/clattered from day 1 on light take off or being lugged in 2nd, pretty common noise that I only noticed at the toll booth or coffee drive thru. Redline MT-90 is pretty much done at 25k, so I'll change it around 40k again. The 6MT is pretty noisy but no where near as bad as the transmission in my Mustang was.

    The ride's great so far. Haven't taken it off-road yet, but on the rough streets of L.A., it's soaking up the bumps nicely. Planning on taking out to Mojave in the coming weeks.
