Any idea of what drove the oil loss? Or was it negligence?

Any idea of what drove the oil loss? Or was it negligence?

Pure human error. They have a process to avoid doing just this, and it was not followed. The look in the tech's face spoke volumes of how bad he felt. Apparently, or at least at this dealership, they have a few really experienced tech's, and a bunch of apprentice tech's. Something big was missed in the handoff.

Good grief
What's your expected down time?

 

[Yossarian]

23 days, got it back yesterday. I started a new thread, "estimating loss of value", input is welcome.

These are they: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VNBDWPK?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00

Direct plug and play. No splicing required.

I just ordered these - hope they work good
thanks for the lead

Sure. I like them. Again, brighter than halogens, but not as much throw.

(You know, @Willy beamin , our trucks are a lot alike (except for color of course). You have good tastes! )

Removed the ARB rear tire swing arm and shoved that 35x12.5x17 KO2 on a RW right up under, in the old original spare tire location. With the ARB bumper and 10psi...it fits. With the LC being my daily driver and needing to access the rear cargo space multiple times a day, the swing arm was a total PIA. Towing with the tire back there sucked too.

Speaking of towing, I added the REDARC trailer brake controller.

Tested out the rear back up lights /rigid cubes. Shady iPhone pic

Thanks you too.
Quick question. Are these dual (high & low beam) or ?

I found the answer - low beam on these - thanks

I have a swingout tire carrier on the Jeep and I never realized how often I actually do go in and out of the trunk till I put that on. PIA is correct.

Added more patches to my rear drawers. The TLCA ones are plaques but I used some velcro to get them to stick

I did a quick sketch of concept bumper for a 200 series. I need to incorporate winch, tow points, license plate and parking sensors.

Shout out to Discount Tire in Fort Collins for hooking me up with slightly used Goodyear LT 285/70-17 for my RW spare for FREE!

 

[InkMing]

Nice hook up!

 

[TJsTACOMA]

They are awesome. Great sponsor at FJ summit and in the stores

What are you towing and why a PITA?

 

[TioChachie]

All I have to say is that is awesome it fits. Carry an air compressor and you are good to go!

Yes.

I tow a boat with a large bow. The width of the bow and the tire on the rear limit turning radius.
