Hey Jeff, welcome to the OB forum! You've got a nice truck to explore with. If you haven't already, look into the radiator bypass mod for your transmission cooler (SMOD mod... stands for Strawberry Milkshake Of Death) it is/was a known issue for models pre-'11 (I think it was). Also some folks, myself included, have replaced the original rear axle breather "vent" to prevent premature seal failure. You can google them both and you'll be bombarded with forum links, etc, with answers to questions you might have. I had an '08 (with no issues) and traded it in on a '19. Love 'em both. Enjoy!

I knew a dude named Mike Maldonado when I was younger, like 9th/10th grade... You didn't happen to grow up in the burbs of Sacramento, did ya? (or if you'e a Jr., your dad didn't did he?)

Probably not. But it sure would be cool if ya did! (You can pretend to if ya want...)

And welcome to OB!!
