Iād like opinions on gear oils. The rear has the factory trac lock
Iām thinking about going with a conventional oil over a synthetic. Iāve just never trusted synthetics in my axels.
Whatās everyoneās opinions on that
Iām leaning towards purchasing one of these tire carriers for the bed
Kinda like a pre runner style. Iāll be mounting a full size spare (35/12.50/17)

Any one on the forums have one of these tire carriers? Any concerns?

Hope it helps cuz this bitch makes me white knuckled sometimes
