Have any of you guys with the ARB front bumper had issue with lights mounted in the bumper blocking airflow?

I've seen some threads on changing the oil but how do you adjust those points? I assume it's something you change while the hub is disassembled?

Thermostat is 180° it's all the local auto parts had. And my weight is about 6200 lbs
