    When to do transmission service ?

    Yes, I did it myself the first time when replacing the pan. Followed many of the suggestions and videos linked on this site. This time I just plan to drain the pan and refil. Not swapping the filter this time as it's only been 10k miles.

    Remote Mount Oil Filter

    Got my first couple drips from the PacBrake kit. Guessing it's the O-rings, seems to be the spot for them to leak from. Went ahead and ordered the ones referenced above. My next oil change will probably be in a week or two, so I'll replace them then.

    When to do transmission service ?

    I bought the PPE(?) pan with replaceable filter around 55k, but didn't end up doing it till closer to 65k. Fluid still looked ok. Plan to drain and refill the pan @ my next oil change, which will be at 75k.

    Poor gas mileage

    Mine has dropped around 1mpg (South Jersey) with the winter blend.

    First Oil Change, 1000 Miles or is this just Old Fashioned?

    IIRC I changed mine at 1,500, 5k, and every 5k since.

    Front Pass Side Drive Ax!e

    Common failure point.. the splines wear out since there is zero weather protection. The only way to fix it is to replace the axle and CV shaft.. sucks, had to do mine this past summer. There's a bunch of videos about it on Youtube and a few threads about it on here. ***I believe it's called...

    Exhaust manifold recall

    If I end up keeping this truck, I think I will give them a try.

    Holy Brake pads!!!!

    Just checked mine while, rotating the tires, @ 70k miles and I think mine might have a touch more pad than that. So I agree, they'll probably go 100k. 🤯

    Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T

    I've got 19k - 20k on the Mickey's and they are wearing well. Plenty of tread left. While I agree they were quiet when I first put them on, the do humm a decent amount now. I rotate every 10k.

    Safe RPM's Traveling up a 7-10% Grade

    On steeper grade I'll sit a bit north of 4k but I do not let it 'sit' there very long. Also, with a Limited, watch your door sticker Payload number vs actual tongue weight, hitch, & everything not factory in the truck.

    Tow mode question.

    Mine usually doesn't show that 30' icon unless I hookup my larger trailer and even then, not until I've turned atleast once. I 'think' the blindspot sensor need to figure out how long your trailer before it'll put that icon up.

    Axle Replacement

    I got mine from RockAuto. Might want to check your stub shaft while you're in there.. they are a common failure point on these trucks.

    MT Baja Boss vs Toyo OC vs Falken WP AT4W

    Nothing I notice now, but I'm sure it had an effect on it.

    MT Baja Boss vs Toyo OC vs Falken WP AT4W

    I have the MT's in LT275/60/20. Other than the weight (LT) and the road noise, I love them. I'm almost 20k in and they're wearing great (10k rotations), great grip both wet & dry, smooth as the OEM Falken's were.. would definitely buy them again.
