    3” lift, black step bars, aftermarket wheels, LT305/55R20 was this way when I brought it.
    I have not changed my Transmission fluid yet, I have herd that I shouldn’t now to late. My tundra is a 2015 1794 4x4 with 95k miles I don’t use it to tow anything. Has anyone had any problems with changing it late.

    do you want the world to spin backwards, the oceans to empty, Toyota to admit they should have installed a transmission cooler on the 2019 and newer trucks? very dangerous question.

    I had 15 quarts swapped out via the trans cooler on my 2013 with 105k without any problems. Transmission didn’t shift roughly before but seems to shift even smother now.

    I just had mine done at dealer. Never had it changed before had 120k on the 15 crewmax. I tow a lot! A lot of guys said only do a drain and fill. Dealer said todo a full flush. Went with full flush no problem!
