    I finished up my 30,000 service by changing the front diff and transfer case oil and changing the spark plugs.

    Everything was pretty easy using write-ups from here at TW. It's about time this place saved me money instead of making me spend it!! :D

    Nice, did you actually measure out the oil or just rip till it started coming out the hole?

    Well, from the write-ups I knew what each took so as I was adding I knew when it was close but I did actually fill till it started coming out on the transfer case and the front differential.

    I did the rear diff first and I drove the rear wheels up on some 4" boards to give myself more room to work (was really unnecessary though), that made the truck slant down to the front so when I put the required amount in it wasn't coming out the fill hole. I stuck my finger in and it was right there at the bottom of the hole. I figured it was because of the slight tilt of the truck and rear end.

    It depends on driving conditions, I drive for long periods in a very dry climate, I never see water in the mix. Still glad I did this mod.

    My AVEC 30" combo beam light bar came in yesterday! Still waiting for mounts to get it installed but it looks to be pretty nice. I can't wait to see it lit up.

    I also received my switch for my underhood lights and I hope to get that project done over the weekend.
