Drained the transmission fluid and filled with the Dex/Merc, 3.75 quarts. I'm going to drive it for a few days and drain it again.

Little update;
Got an SYE installed from SeriousOffroad. Put it in relatively easy. Works great, and now I actually have to watch my speed, because I can't just rely on the vibes any more
After towing a trailer that was a lot heavier than expected (4000lbs of trailer and wet wood) I decided to get a trans cooler. Got the largest one through my work. Thanks to the guys at CPO for letting me wrench at their spot.
Also love that work light
I just take the front clip off. Makes it so easy
Thing is huge
Also did a coolant flush.

I got some work done...
Made the stubbiest of stubby bumpers... Lol
Rusted out hitch, stock. Glad I never pulled on it.
Bye bye bumper brackets

Yup, working towards the no lift brackets. I knew I was gonna have to cut the hitch out, but didn't know I was gonna have to hack the bumper out. Now the hitch has additional attachment points that I didn't know about that I have to cut out.
That.
They're all torx bit and rusted to hell.

Ah.
Why'd you cut the bumper out, exactly? Too lazy to deal with the crappy bolts? (the inside one really really sucks, whoever designed that should be ashamed)
