nice/bummer.. I ruined a perfectly good oil change and had to redo it.. was fun..not... long story... added about half qrt of oil to the rear diff... bought all my tranny fluid but just keep staring at the skid plates I am going to have to remove to do it... uuuuuugh

 

WTF. Were you on LSD?

You couldn't have possibly added 5w-30 to the read diff......

 

lmao nooooooooooooooo totally not what I did..

 

So you're the next @Krazie Sj?

blended that post too much...
1) messed up oil change on motor had to redo
2) added about half quart of gear oil to rear diff because it was weeping before.. seems good now..
3)bought ATF fluid... NEED to change tranny fluid
4)skid plates make me not want to...

 

I think I'll have the dealership do the ATF and my coolant at the same time.
I didn't know adding more oil will stop a weeping diff.

 

neither did I, but I also added a trac bar in between there.. I think the axle wrap was causing the leak.. sounds odd I know, but since trac bar and addition of oil no new oil on the axle housing or flange..

 

Still curious how you messed up the oil change Be careful while doing transmission. I know autos have these little things that I forget the name of, that if you damage make you're truck not shift right

 

Lost track of what qrt I was pouring in because my buddy distracted me and ended up pouring in 6 instead of 5.5.. tried draining a little.. ended in draining everything... had to buy more oil lol guess motor got an oil flush...

 

Oh that's not bad. I've heard some nasty horror stories

 

yeah there is all kinds of craziness on here.. the ATF service is kind of daunting but with a ScanGauge I watch my temps and I feel its time for a trans service... dealership seems to think differently.. plus they want arm, leg, other arm... half my last leg to do it over just buying the fluid and taking the time.

 

Fuck it's going to be like 115 in Barstow this weekend...and I was planning on going

 

damn that is hot. It is supposed to be three digits here to.

 

Ac working double time

 

Pool time!

 

It's already getting hot enough here to bother me. Can't imagine how its going to be down there. I would probably die. Can't stand the heat

 

I'll be at the beach looking at fat chicks showing off more than they should.

 

Could've used like 4 more hands to tackle this dumb project today while drinking cold ones. And would've been cool to meet some peeps on here too. Once my suspension comes in, hopefully I can tag along on some campouts or head to some meets

 

Problem is my climate control won't work on "high" lol
Neither hot or cold

Seriously

 

I think I have a spare climate control sitting in the garage. Let me know if you want it.
