When I bought from gupton they told me there was no penalty to pay it off early but asked me to keep the loan for 7mo(I think) so they would get credit for it. Saved me 1% on the purchase price and the loan was 0% apr for the short time I had it.

I was planning on installing arb lockers on my truck, but after taking it out a few times I'm not sure I can justify the expense. The rear lsd paired with traction control is just too good

This is Amsoil SS 0w20. The truck is mostly used for towing my boat and off-road trailer, which makes up about 75% of the mileage.

Saying "I'm experienced" isn't a valid argument. Saying "here's solid evidence that the OP's wear levels were normal before the flush" would have been a valid argument. And nobody is debating that he voided his warranty with the non-oem flush anyway. You seem to have some sort of a grudge...

An anecdote is a story. A very relevant oil analysis that helps prove you wrong isn't an anecdote just because you don't like it.

Here's a ZF 8 speed UOA that I just pulled off the JL Wrangler forum: 112ppm iron and 39ppm copper at 50,000mi on a healthy transmission. Kinda seems like the lab got it right and you are making baseless claims here.

He got the oil analysis because of the transmission noise, the oil analysis showed heavy wear, and the transmission died shortly after. This all lines of pretty well. The OP also stated that he has a couple of oil reports from presumably healthy transmissions that don't show anywhere near the...

Have you ever used Blackstone? They have never tried to sell me anything or showed me anything to worry about. People who buy an oil analysis generally know what they are looking for, so falsifying data or misleading customers on the reports would not go well for a lab.

There's plenty of "what ifs" floating around at this point, but the fact that the transmission was whining and full of metal is pretty damning.

The transmission was well on its way to failure before he changed the fluid out for amsoil. I've never used their ATF and am not sure I ever will, but trying to imply that it's a bad product because it didn't save a transmission that was heading to the grave either way is a little crazy.

It always amazes me how people can work for a company like FCA and ignore all the evidence you presented in a situation like this. What a bunch of twats.

Another vote against the undercover ultra flex. Regret spending 1k on it

Along with carbon buildup in the combustion chamber, burning that oil is going to shorten the life of your catalytic converter & o2 sensors over time. Saying that they are "of no use" is pretty silly. If you don't think they are worth the money, that's fair enough.

I read your post. I've torn apart hundreds of motors when I worked as a technician and seen the effects of oil ingestion through pcv systems, which is why I spent the money to get a catch can. And I'm pretty sure the EPA would give you a pat on the back for capturing and recycling oil in a catch...

Seems kinda logical that people who don't own a catch can wouldn't be able to give much feedback on them. I have the UPR catch can and it does a great job of catching oil with no water.

That pricing is pretty ambitious.

It's a little ironic that you state it has "no issues" and then immediately list two issues in the next sentence

You should have flipped the pin to the inside like everyone suggested. I have a stock gladiator with these disconnects and can tell you the pin needs to face inward to line up properly.

Slightly above horizontal is good, most people recommend around 10°

You definitely need to flip the pin over. I also cut the length of mine down and rethreaded them to get the sway bar a little more level.
