What's the drain interval? How many miles did you have?

I did it once on my Dodge Dakota, but the fill port was very difficult to access and pour into. So I never did it again. But...I had the have that differential rebuilt 6 times, so it got fresh fluid often enough.
I believe 30,000 heavy driving. I have 35,100. I used a bag of oil so would fit in tight place just squeeze. Much easier than bottles. The old oil looked really good. Probably was not needed but gave me a chance to look at drain plug for metal shavings. There were non.
 
Lift kit was delivered. Damn first real truck parts and parts are massive compared to car parts I’m use too. Can’t wait to install this weekend hopefully.
 
Two $15 totes from home depot and an adjustable lock bar, and I have the perfect storage solution for the back of my truck. Saw this on a Facebook page and thought I'd try it. Works perfectly for what I'm looking for. And the totes easily stack and can be moved out of the way if I'm hauling anything large.View attachment 129030
I run a similar setup. I wanted to be able to keep groceries in the bed without them sliding around on the trip home. I put some camping gear in the bins a few weekends ago, but without the bed cover or bar because I was also hauling my dirtbike. Also a great place to hide Christmas gifts!
 
Is there a write up on this install alongside the part needed? I would love ro do this!
No write up but its straight forward, the lights link together and sit against the inner rail where u mount them with double side tape and predrill a tiny hole and put a screw in each section of led. route the wires across and brought them in through firewall and tapped into the under dash led under the steering wheel.

so they are wired into the interior lighting?
 
Those are not the binds, those are 1/3 of the size, tiny things.
Those aren't the same as the ones from Home Depot and may not work as well.
I sent the correct link in a post above but illl post it here

Don't buy the ones linked from amazon, they are only 5 inches high.
Hell don't even buy them from Amazon unless you want to get ripped off. They are listed at a 250% markup from Home Depot Husky Stackable Garage Storage Bin (5 in. H x 11 in. W x 11 in. D) SHSKYSTKB
