The front skid was NOT touched. This I am sure. Looks like filter can not be accessed unless skid removed. Not sure about the drain plug. I do know of people that vacuum out oil from the top end. Just didnt think the dealer would do this. Looked at receipt from dealer which states new filter...
Took my 12' TE in for 1st oil change. Got it back with oil drips all over engine. Skid plate not touched (ask how i know).
Anyone think they sucked out the oil from the top and left the old filter in?
Thought you had to take off front skid to get to filter?
Who knows what these "oil techs"...
Sure did. Same wheel. I will never again roll on anything other than E's. So far so good. Im sure it is overkill for most but peace of mind for me is priceless.
My passenger/car tires lasted me 10 days before a sidewall blew. Never again on an off road vehicle. Sidewalls are paper thin on P. E only for me. Ill take the mpg hit for safety all day long
Lose those marshmellow tires and put some real tires on (stifler side walls). You will notice a big difference. You are unfortunately behind the 8 ball with that SR5 suspension. I couldnt handle the feeling of floating on the road while driving, hence the trail/kdss. Completely different...
You will just barely touch the body mount at rear of front well...but only at full lock in reverse. Also only on driver side. Will be close but not enough not to use those. How much will depend on that MT tire. The -12 offset is the contributing factor but really is the best offset for that 9...
