Changed out the front differential fluid. Quite a pain to do compared to the rear diff.

Just a thorough cleaning for today. Had to take advantage of the break in the rain we've been getting the past week or so.

Front hubs

Changed out the front hubs on my 2011 3.5d. Pretty straight forward. Didn't need to unhook any suspension parts...

You do have to change the calipers on the front to either the F85 or E70-M calipers. You can find them used, or buy a kit.

The rears require new carriers for the calipers, but use the same calipers.

Sorry for any confusion.

Installed the black twin slat kidney grills today. Told myself I'd wait until I put the wrap on the car but got bored and wanted to change things up. Looks so much better.

Got my truck back from the mechanic, installed a new AR high flow catalytic converter shout out to Mike @ Xtreme Power House for hooking me up!

Really great craftsmanship on this thing, love the AR signature, and I opted for the ceramic coating. Loving it!

After seeing the post I went ahead and ordered them since they're only $20. Quality is good and they look great. Install was easier than all the reviews say - instructions say to put the brake pedal cover on from bottom to top...that way didn't work. Installed from right to left and it popped right on. Not sure if he installed properly cause mine doesn't have that rubber piece hanging below the brake.

Finally took a picture of the aluminum pedal covers to show the difference on the brake pedal without the rubber strip being visible.

Edit: To anyone considering pedal covers these are a good option. They don't interfere with the weathertech mat. Build quality is definitely good and we'll see how they hold up over time. I was considering a couple different more expensive, like 5-10x more expensive, options and to me it's not worth it. Plus these are no drill which makes it easy.

I didn't realize the M has color matched rub strips. That looks great!
