What did you do to your TRX today?

Can you explain to me the benefits of the SRT oil filter as opposed to, say, a NAPA gold filter? Thank you.
There is a video comparing the Wix (best), various Frams (XG best), etc. For the life of me I can't find it. Shows the media, backing mesh, valves, seals, etc. From other posts, it appears that Wix makes the SRT filter. Will use either of those. Since the oil is like $50+, seems like using the best filter makes sense.
 
 
Mocked up the Armordillo Chase Rack this morning. Getting ready to do a few mods to it so I will have functionality of the rearview camera and LED lights. It will also utilize an above the bed tire carrier. I will do a thread on the mods and install as well.

Funny, I was looking this morning at maybe picking up a couple more 041s for the stockpile. Unfortunately the filters are now going for more than the oil.

Word on the street is that they are discontinued and a new version is landing in the fall. Not sure if that’s true. But people are nuts paying $80+ for an oil filter. If I can’t get one for the $15 I used to pay, I’ll use something else. They were already overpriced compared to a Wix XP, PureOne or Fram Ultra.
 
Should have went with the bulge style lugs. They cover up all the bare aluminum so you don’t see the rings.
He’s just one of the unlucky guys with crappy powder coating like me. Some TRX wheels are coated pretty well to the lugnut seats…

Others…not so much. The bulge lugs aren’t anywhere near big enough to cover that crap. I have them.

Damn. Guess I got lucky. I didn’t realize that.

I would have to paint that shit. It would drive me nuts.

These trucks aren’t cheap. They should have came with quality BLACK lugs to begin with IMO.

Still have the factory lug nuts. Haven’t put the black on yet. And the ones I have leave no silver to show. Always forget them anytime I’m taking wheels off.
 
Ye

Yeah, they are the bulge. Haven’t really noticed it too much but definitely thinking about touching it up.
