Yeah I went long than I care to say on this last change. Just forgot to check my milage and the last change date. Went 8 months and 5500 miles. I normally do it every 6 months or 3000 miles

A bit more than I expected but since I have done it before in dyno cells and race cars it wasn't the first time. Locating a place to mount stuff is what was the worst. Plumbing was straight fwd just cut the stainless steel oil line and terminate each end. I used a -10 size.

I changed the oil, fuel filter, and air filter the day I got it. Been slowly picking at the rest. Did both diffs a few months back. Transmission is next then I need to do the PS fluid. What's wrong with yours?
