Re: DIY: Differential Oil Drain & Fill
I just changed fluids in the front and rear differentials and the transfer case. I let each drain until I couldn't wait any longer, but still was not able to get the full amount in that the owners manual states. I put 3 quarts in the rear and it was already coming back out the fill hole, the manual states 3.7 quarts.
Can any of these three fluids (F&R diff and transfer case) be overfilled? Will overfilling cause any problems?
I was surprised that the fluid in the rear and transfer case looked new, with 31,000 miles. The front looked slightly darker, but still much better than I expected.
Very little metal dust on the magnets.
I used Lucas synthetic.
