What did you do to your TRX today?

After replacing this exact axle two weeks ago, this one is already crapped itself and had to bandaid it. I just happened to take a look during a quick stop on my 4 hour hour drive.Ended up turning around 2.5 hours in and coming home...View attachment 162506
Did this job for the second time after ~370 miles. Took less than 2 hours this time. 20 min was just cleaning grease off everything...

Does anyone know if there is a good custom wheel manufacturer in the Dallas/Fort Worth area? I like VFC, but was hoping there was a company a little more local. From what I am hearing from VFC, the price is not that much more and your wheels are much lighter. Am I missing something?

VFC probably does not manufacture in house and in reality is just a design shop, getting their wheels shipped from china. Hence the price difference.

Plenty of savvy people have cut out the middle man and reached out directly to those manufacturers on alibaba.

Hit 1k miles on my 27 so I changed the fluid in my front and rear diffs. Fluid didn’t look bad in either one, just a bit glittery. Next up is engine oil and transfer case fluid, just ran out of time today.

Also got my Borla Atak delivered today and threw it right on. Took me about 2 hours start to finish working solo, super straightforward. I was worried about it being too loud but it’s really not bad at all and I love the sound so far.
 
Finished for the short term. Tires 35x12.50-18 Duratrac RT'S, PPF with brow, LineX hard folding cover, AWE exhaust, RB Mud Flaps,dealer did Mopar power steps and I had the Spynex anti theft which is exceptional, and lastly PIAA wipers.
