i've done them all myself. worth it? you tell me after you've drained them and seen what came out

for the trans fluid, i opted out of the $75/qt (no typo!!!!) Porsche fluid and went with the 99.9% equivalent toyota type IV for $6/qt. held up nicely over the past 110k miles.


and thread related, mine's sitting at 200k right now, only 100k more to go

I do most of my own maintenance and repairs. Dealer quote for 160K was $4000. They do a bunch of other stuff, but the drive-train fluids is the biggest part. I may do it myself, but it will be in a few months, I'm retired and no longer commuting, it only gets 3K-4K miles a year. On the other hand, it hasn't been to a dealer since the previous owner bought it as a CPO...about 80K miles ago. Might be good to get an expert's opinion on its overall needs. I plan to drive it until it (or I) dies.

That was an old picture where I was running 255 55 18 with black letters. I am now lifted with 2.6 inch spacers and I'm running on my 3rd set of tires at 265 65 18. No rubbing whatsoever and runs great.

Nice! Can share details on your too mounted lights and you have them wired?

I got the roof rack from ebay and bolted in 4 Hella Ff300 lights to it. The wiring is not permanent and I either run it all the way back to the rear tailgate or sometimes it goes down through the B pillar of the door. I still have not decided where to drill a hole and would probably use a marine grade disconnect plug. I cannot do it a la Transsyberia because of the sunroof.
