Working on a partial trade for which I still hope to acquire the same kit. Looks good. I’d be interested to know how much you get at first oil change. How many miles at install?

24,500 miles... Almost due for an oil change and torn between converting to a metal pan so I can run a fumoto valve or just getting the Ronin plug for my plastic pan. Mine doesn’t leak (well, yet...now that I’ve jinxed it), but there’s something just wrong about a plastic oil pan.

May just punt and let the dealer change it this time since I want them to reflash my ECU and TCU with the most recent version anyway. I want a good baseline before I eventually tune.

Added another small light bar to the front. I wanted something subtle and don't require a ton of wattage. I opted for the zRoadz lower grill light and was exactly the look I wanted. Install was a breeze, probably spent 30 minutes max on it. Later this week I'll install the license plate relocation bracket so the po-po don't hassle me.

What plate relocation are you going with?

Finally addressed a weak link, the Brakes. Got the Rotors, SS lines and Amsoil from Chris @ Freedom Motorsports (Vendor here). Local shop supplied the pads and the Beast stops now!

Need details! Is there another thread or can you write a mini review? Parts list? Very nice.

I've considered this as well. Due for another oil change on the 2018 (15k miles). I guess I've been fortunate. Haven't had any issues with the plastic cap or pan. It's been very easy. Still prefer a metal plug compared to the plastic, but push in and turn has been relatively straightforward.

I’m just under 13k and no issues with my plastic pan either, conflicting stories on the pick up tube needs to swap over to metal pan in the last thread I went through. I’ll talk to my dealer if it ever leaks under warranty I’ll see if I can upgrade, or do it myself after warrenty.

I got everything (Rotors/SS lines/Fluid) from Chris @ Freedom Motorsports. Give him a call and ask him for details on Big Blue's Brake kit set-up, he will take great care of you. Regards.

From an after the fact stand point, I am very happy with the upgrade. I felt the stock brakes were spongy and lacked real stopping power, not anymore! :)
