For Stock Rigs Only

I hadn't posted any. I really only have them on when it snows since they have the Duratracs on them.

 

I'm with ya. I'm a Mobil 1 guy myself...though I do use SuperTech synthetic in some friends and family vehicles per their request. I was just explaining why that chart was showing 5w30 conventional for the 1GR engine. Still though, conventional oil is up to the task when changed regularly. But I do like the added protection of a synthetic....whether real or perceived

 

I've been using supertech lately. It's like 15 bucks a jug. Not saying it's as good as a major brand, but it's most likely ok.

 

I do use mobil 1 in my celica since it occasionally sees some pretty high speeds/rpms

 

Nothing wrong with it. It’s popular on BITOG

I'd probably stop watching tacomaholic if I heard that.

 

Howdy Marcus.

 

Absolutely. Warren Distribution produces SuperTech, Amazon Basics, Meijer's house brand and others I'm sure. It's an excellent oil and a great value. Both of my FIL's vehicles have spent most of their lives on SuperTech conventional...though I did switch the the High Mileage synthetic formula about 3 years ago. Both are well north of 100k miles. Zero issues

 

My 2015 is pretty much stock. I added a few things; predator steps, roof rack, 3rd gen wheels, mud flaps, pro headlights, ultimate headlight harness, & KC fogs. So far I’m liking this truck!

 

I am a Mobil 1 guy myself in my Camaro. Which is recommended by GM.

he just posted a 500 mile video on switching oils also he used a UV light kit

For those who didnt bother to read.

 

Well, I've convinced myself to change out my lower ball joints. I checked them out today, both sides have ripped boots.

Probably be a couple weeks down the road, have to get them ordered. It's pretty rusty, so probably nothing will go smooth. I'll pressure wash and soak with penetrating oil a couple days before.

I've never messed with ball joints but it looks simple enough. I watched one video where the guy used a hammer, another used the ball joint puller. Not sure what I'll try yet.

 

It's all good man! Our trucks are (mostly) stock, it's Friday, and life is good! Let's agree to disagree on personal oil choices and crack a brewski!

 

True that man

 

I've got a $20 BJ seperator from Harbor Freight that's never let me down....though I've never used it on a Taco.

 

Knocked out the service for wife's crv- oil and air filter. Friday chores done, time to drink a fruity beer or 10!

 

Harbor Freight BJ???














I'm...intrigued

 

Adding it to the list.
