Jim is good people. I have been running the same 8854 oil Linc switch to, just did a drain &a fill on my tranny with 1150, and swapped two gasser work trucks to 5w-30 that Jim just did a 21 or 22k oil change on his 5.0. Haven't tried the grease, but have been wanting to since reading how much Linc likes it. I can't believe it's taken him this long to swap to 8854 in his 6.7.

just ordered the 8854 for work.. then I get a deep discount getting it from work if ya know what I mean.... lol..

the grease is amazing. don't get it on your clothes or seats or anything you don't want left greasy.. it sticks to everything!!!!! it is super thick this time of year though.. I have to put my pistol grip on the dash of the work truck and heat it up or I can barely squeeze it out..

live life full throttle

Mainah!
Rebuilt the entire front drive, 3 Spicier u-joints, new Ford/Spicier differential flange, cardan joint bearing, and strap kit. Going in was a hell of a lot easier than disassembly! Finally got rid of the vibration/grinding I was getting in 4x4.

Wait until you see the second 5k oil analysis. First 5k & filter change was fine, nothing wrong with the 10k at oci, but the second 5k looked dang near like new oil.
Edit: uploaded analysis. 1 is 5k on T6. 2 is 5k on 8854 at filter change. 3 is 10k on 8854 at oci and filter. 4 is 5k on 8854 at filter change.

Past the city limits on my patch of dirt
The camper shell being a different color would drive me crazy. At least with the winter climate the truck should be matching fairly soon! 😂

Oh, and you forgot your interior with that bath... LOL.



And mine's sitting this week- noticed it leaking around the water pump gasket so that got added to my to-do list.

I like it as an accent color myself. Like the old bronco and blazers. Good looking truck. For a crew cab long bed. They usually just look too long for my taste.

Got the cab off. Gonna pull the valve covers off tomorrow and see what's going on with it. Was gonna have to pull the cab anyway to address a couple minor things. Gonna go ahead and get her on her diet while I'm at it.
