I also exchanged the incandescent Porch Light for a very low ampere draw LED and finished measuring and laying out the mounting location's for the Tantrum Rock Light Kit .

Buji ,
I climbed up on it a couple of time last evening and it is much better than it was . I to have 3-M Adhesive Strips on my Ladder , Roof Rack
and the leading edge of my Running Boards . I also had the tape on
the edge of of the front and rear Aluminess Bumper's but removed because I am in shorts 300 plus day's a year and kept peeling my Shin's and Knee's . I purchased two can's and only used one of them so I plan to cross hatch with a second coat ,using 1/4" webbing material after a couple more day's of curing , just for a little additional texture . You can also purchase this material in kits with a roller included but Pep Boy's only had these kit's in Gallons at $99.00 per kit. Enough for a small pick up bed , Can's were only $7.95 each .
Pull up the Dupli Color web site for instructional video's .

This is on my to do list including the Transmission Pan . Were their any installation issue's with this vented Transmission Pan ?
Greggde

No issues with the Derale Transmission pan. I have the E4OD Transmission. Also order the longer transmission filter since the pan holds more transmission oil and is deeper.

I ordered everything from summit-racing including the adhesive heat shield material and exhaust wraps..

Rotated my tires. 5 tire rotation. Takes about an hour.

Had the oil changed. Went in for brakes due to a squeek, but brakes and pads are fine... maybe I'll go to 17" rims and get to upgrade.

[Greg In Austin]

I performed our first oil change over the last two days.

I have to say that having this much ground clearance and using a 5 gallon bucket to catch the oil makes it much easier to change the oil.

.....but filling up most of a 5 gallon bucket with the waste oil is surprising even when you know it is going to be that much....
