I guess I'll be grabbing some skids since rci is going through with the gb. So question now is steel vs aluminum. I'm leaning towards steel, what do you guys think?

 

if you intend on using the crap out of them id say go steel for the belly armor.

 

I don't really intend to, but the extra cost of aluminum and (I believe) the extra durability of the steel seem to outweigh the minimal weight savings.

 

steel

 

I've also been running the fumoto valve for years with not one problem!! only way to do an oil change, although now i still have to get messy when changing the 4R oil since that dumb cartridge filter drains too.

 

Any oil pan valves for a 3.4? I'll like to throw one on my next oil change.

 

Who wants to fly to Boston to bring back a tundra with me. Ill pay for everything but the flight.

 

Buy it from somewhere better next time.

 

According to Fumoto's site, you need the

$33 F-103 with LC-10 Included F-Series Engine Oil Drain Valve, 1 Pack

F-103 series with the M12-1.25 thread.

 

i could be convinced with some beer. i assume a team drive out here?

 

Thank you sir!

 

I used to do that for a buddy that bought salvaged subie's. He'd buy them all over the country and I'd drive them here cause they sell so well. It was a good time.

 

Some where better? I'm gonna go eat all I can eat lobster rolls at some point while I'm back there.
I'm flying out and driving it back. There is no place out here giving me the deal I got.

 

I went with aluminum and they have held up well so far

 

Got a snap on bottle opener from my neighbor.

 

My parent just got back from Cozumel

 

I did manage to hit mine and bend the oil pan a little bit even though it's about 1/2"-3/4" above the skid plate....
Nothing leaks so no real problem, but if I had it to do over I guess I'd get the one without the nipple,

 

That is why I stick with the plug. Don't want to end up like Joe on Red Cone but not notice it and smoke the motor.

 

I have one with out a nipple

 

Longtime no talk everyone! Found something jeeps are good for the other day! lol
