    Front/rear differential and transfer case fluids all changed out today.

    Also installed new front rotors and pads. Got distracted during the brake work and forgot to tighten/torque the driver side brake caliper mounting bolts. Figured it out when I went to work on the passenger side and realized I hadn't adjusted my torque wrench to the proper setting. I'm thinking next time I'll create a checklist and mark off the steps as I go so I don't have another slip up; that one could have been bad!

    I heard about the noise too but I was going 80 on the freeway in AZ with a dust storm and it was barely noticable. I went with the regular Prinsu rack for this reason with the wind front plate and thick (what she said) weather stripping that goes in the bottom of the wind plate.

    Went through the same situation with my body armor bumper. Went with this light bar. Bolts to the plate and shines down. Could also use those bolt leds too I'd imagine, or anything really that shines down instead of up at the camera, which is the trick.

    Seems like a pretty good solution. I like that it shines downward away from the camera

    If I wanted a 2024, I would have bought a 2024, my next door neighbor has a 2024 and a 2023, I am not a fan of the 2024, that is why I bought the 2023...

    I had already said that I understood why they are removed for the 4x4's, and I have a rwd that never sees dirt, so why would I need to remove it...

    But you keep on being you...

    Swapped Rigid fogs with SS3 Pro. Not only they look better, but perform better. Really happy with it.

    I like to sleep in my truck.

    Dude those quad LED look so sick. I need to upgrade my OEM ones. So many options. The square ones were nice too but those rounds, DOPE.
