I always change out the oil filter with a new one and only do oil changes when the oil is hot so it drains easier. My guess is the diff oil was lower than I thought, even though it looked to be at the top of the fill plug. Which really isn't surprising, I haven't changed it since I bought the vehicle new in 04.
    haha. I was dead serious. Mine is *supposed* to take 12 qts. That's right 3 Gallons of golden, silky smooth RotellaT 15W-40 and a Stratopore filter.

    That said, Slinky did it first.

    Also went to the range and shot 1 awesome group with the new BCM upper before the skies opened up. I'm pretty sure Lightning struck the berm at the range... I heard ssssssss CRACK KA-BOOM! I heard the sizzle at the beginning before the flash. I packed up and left real quick.

    Costco. Each 4'x8' rack can hold up to 600lbs and regularly costs $200, but I got them for $150 each on sale. The first one was a gift from my in-laws (trying to tell me something? lol) so I only have $300 and a few hours invested here. They should outlast the house and they are pretty sturdy.

    I looked at some online from who knows what big box, where you could raise and lower them, for around the low - mid 200's

    I'm not one of those genius types, But wouldn't you have 96 sq ft with three of those (barring overlap)? Nice addition, though. Wish my garage would allow some.
