Default Front Differencial Turning?

Hey Guys, Question for ya'll.............With my 4x4, normal street driving, naturally the front diff is not engaged. Ok, in that mode, does the front gears still turn, there fore require the fluid to beserviced at the same intervals as the rear diff. or can I take it a bit longer before serviceing? Not long ago, I replaced my trans with an ATS, and installed Amsoil synthetic ATF, along with the transfer case fluid change.Not long after thatI also serviced the rear diff. with severe gear 75/110 lube. Should I consider the front at this time as well? I have around 29,000 mile to date.

yes you should service the front at the same time... that way they are both on the same schedule and you know it's been done.

Thanks Buddy, Guess I should consider getting a larger pan as well if I have to drop it for service.
