Nice grab. I'm jealous of that 6.2

We had rain all summer here in Alaska so maybe we will actually get some snow this winter.

Got her home! Funds need to recover so I can tackle the following.

- Tires and new TPMS as one is cutting out once in a while
- Alignment
- New rotors, pads
- Park brake is broken
- Oil change
- Rear main seal leak I think?
- One of the auto side mirrors might be broken
- New extra key and setup FOBs. I only got one key.
- Deep cleaning
- Floor mats, I don't have any that came with it
- Exhaust resonator delete
- Air filter
- Cabin filter
- Service front/rear diff
- Service xfer case.

AND I'M NOT TOUCHING THE EFFING TRANS BEFORE WINTER THIS YEAR!!!!


Oh and that 6.2 and 6 speed are a fantastic combo.

My guess is oil pan vs. rear main leak, I've seen more of those on the forum. Also for the mirror, I think a gear fails in them. See this post.

Mirrors work great!

My power rear hatch works, but it pops and jerks... Anyone seen this before?

Oh, got two FOBs to work. Remote start is neat.

I did an oil change today, if not just for an excuse to look at the underside. Nothing too bad but some findings.

First, she fits!

I found new o2 sensors. But the good that installed em was lazy or high and left the o2 wiring resting on the front driveshaft!! Wtf?!

A mouse chewed up the trans wire cover. Neat.

I've got an oil leak. Might be the pan. But!! The trans oil lines are wet and caked. Do trans oil lines leak on these things?

I'll be starting on a full brake job tomorrow. Rotors are warped and parking brake doesn't work.
