Nope, no issues at all. I did take the opportunity to clean up the ribs after I trimmed them off and try to make it at least a little more presentable. Camera also has been working flawlessly as well.

I would think that 5K might be a little too obsessive as it's doubtful drivetrain components are even broken at that point. I would say for the trans/transfer case and diff's 15K would be much more in line with severe service.

26 ORP, no thermostat.

Thanks!

Which length did you purchase? I'm half deaf so I don't hear the noise but my wife notices a little air noise on the passenger side.

This just reminded me to clean up the bottom of the panel. Looks a little better with a quick sand.

Not required as it's more of a screen than a filter. Drain and fills with OEM WS fluid, as needed depending on your use. Just make sure you have an accurate way to measure the temp when you do the fluid check. Cautious what you use for the transfer case as well, there are a couple...

Go with the 275/65/18, gets you even closer to the stock size (height). I thought the Pro wheels stuck out too far for the flares and mud flaps so I went with the accessory wheel version. So close to stock size it's insignificant, with just a tiny bit more width. No rub or issues on mine.

I used to be in a lot of detailing forums / groups and it seems that most of the manufacturers try to get you locked in on the latest and greatest. Then once you get set up, the next one hits and you still have a supply of that would probably last you a lifetime. Eventually you end up with a...

I've been waiting forever for the Lasfit's to go on sale, but the TuxMat's I find intriguing.... Time to check out YT and see if there are any reviews!

I would add that you can go up a little with 275/65/18 vs the 275/70/18 and still be within almost spec height. I did the G3's, but I've had the Falken's and Toyo as well. I wanted to try out the Terra Grappler G3's but if I had to pick one with no other options out there it would probably be...

I would say you got a good start. A cheap detail brush to agitate the stuff and a cheap pump sprayer would probably keep you ahead of the curve. I find microfibers work fine for this area, I usually grab a bunch of the Harbor Freight ones when they're free or like $1 and use them specifically...

Give them a good cleaning with a detail brush getting behind and flushing that stuff out. From that point when you wash the car after you're done give the door jambs a quick wipedown with a spray wax. Keeps them slick and clean, gets easier every time as they are waxed.

This guy has some great tests and reviews of a bunch of products. Well worth the watch.

I see this topic come up time to time on various groups and boards and thought I'd share what I use with excellent results. I've had the gray SEMA wheels, black SEMA wheels, black flow form wheels and now the black TRD accessory wheels on my 26 ORP. I've tried numerous different products from...
