Did my first oil change (@1100 miles). Used Mobil 1 and the OEM Motorcraft oil filter.

- Liked that I didn't need to use ramps or stands.
- Liked the little oil tray that directed oil away from the filter.

- Holy hell the guys at the motor plant can tighten an oil filter. I needed the jaws of life to get the son-bitch off.

Got bored and wanted to see what my stock wheels would look like black. Think they turned out pretty good, guess I will have to do the rest now. Put 5 coats of dip and two coats of the plasti dip glossifier.


Is the finish glossy or satin? I'm going to do flares/bumpers, but want to make sure that I have a satin black color when done.

Yes. I wanted the option of ambers. Also they are a new light that is 4-5 watt CREE LED's. I will be using the same light on my hood mounts as well

I meant Dually as just the generic name haha...interesting. I'm looking to see if I can incorporate a set of cube ambers in addition the 6" bars and 40" bar on the Bravo bumper. I'll probably get one after I do wheels/tires and RPG Stage 2.

I ordered these sweet cnc bar clamps anodized black from UTVINC

I have 3 sets that'll be here tomorrow for my dually's. (2 sets up front and 1 set for my red dually's that imma be tieing into my brake lights. I'll also have them on a switch for when the weathers bad or someone's riding my ***. I can flip on some "legal" red bright brake lights to stay more aware). Lol. I've also noticed red lights doesn't drown out the reverse camera. Try using your brakes the next time backing up and you'll see.

They come in many sizes that you have to specify when ordering. Shipped out pretty quick too. The only negative, the bar clamps are $69 a set if I'm not mistaken.

Definitely going to use an aftermarket filter after my first Ford service.

Didn't want them to know that I changed my oil. Some dealerships are weird like that so wanted to test the waters after I get to know them.

Never used the Mobil1 filters so will be trying those out. Thanks for the suggestion.
