Heck yeah. Thank you for the links, I’ll follow along just as you did. I really want to get the fluid level perfect because the shop that replaced the 4L60e in my tahoe left it at a quart low and the new trans was gone in 15,000 miles

Dang that sucks. This process wasn't terrible. I drained out 3qts, and put almost 4 back in (to account for a trans cooler I added). Then put it in the temp check mode and drained out the extra to the right level

Did you happen to change your filter during your service?

No, I didn't drop the pan. Filter has been done by a shop before, so I didn't mess with it

Not today but a couple days ago I replaced the passenger side rear axle seal. A bit time consuming but not too bad. The section of the seal the spring sits in was completely worn off so the spring was just dangling. Hopefully no more leaking into my brakes.

Cleaned up under the hood. Not spotless by any stretch but not bad for ~15 years and 214K.

Today after work I plan on swapping out my sun faded headlights for the retrofitted headlights I just finished building.

Speaking of retrofitting, I read about someone taking the fake rear fog lights on the 03-05s rear bumper, and retrofitting them to be real rear fog lights. I'm not sure where I read that or what they actually wound up doing, but I thought it was really neat idea, and if I ever have the spare time/budget for that mod, I'd love to take a crack at it.

Pressure washed the main carpet (haven't taken the trunk apart), truck's been sitting for a while so rodents were living in it. Rodent stains are pretty much gone, only thing I couldn't get out were some rust spots but they're covered by trim or the console. I originally planned to order vinyl flooring but since the existing carpet came out OK I'll buy all-weather mats instead.

Also ordered a new blower motor (dropped it and cracked the case ) and cabin filter from Rock Auto. Heading to the parts store to get an ozium fogger.

It’s been a while since my rig got any love. Today I welded the lower link skids up to the frame. I made these from 2.5” 1/8th wall square tube. Reminded myself how terrible a welder I am. Booger welds galore! They were inspired by @mikestang , mikestang.com.
Removed the Lamin-x film from the fog lights and installed Sealight 3000k LEDs.

Those are really neat. Id like to do something like that, maybe for the shock mounts too but AFAIK its less of an issue on T4Rs than on tundras/tacomas

I did some looking around at the HCF Delete- as I wasn’t sure what it was- and after looking at a few pictures, I realized that mine has been gone for a while! Oops. Must have gotten thrown out when a previous owner installed that AFE washable air filter that hadn’t been changed in 10 years.

Lower shock mount guards are on the list of to-dos. Both of mine are a little banged up.
