Had off from school today so decided to change my diff fluids and t-case fluids...

does this sounds right??

Used around 5.20 pints of fluid in the t-case.

7.40 pints in the front diff

8.50 pints in the rear diff

sound right?

 

did the trans stick show full or with in range?

did the oil flow out the filler hole on the diffs??

when i fill diffs, the oil better flow out a bit or im not done.

a trans needs to be checked often as you fill it.

 

yes to all...

so i guess i did it right...

 

also check the tranny in neutral. some people just make sure it is on the stick, that is wrong. crank her up and put her in neutral so the fluid is circulating. the pump doesnt operate in park on dodge tranies.

 

yeah, i have done that on alll the cars or trucks i checks...moms vw, and bros honda..isnt that the correct way to check it on everything??

 

except manuals

 

haha well.....i guess i could figure that..lol....not checking the A(TF) fluid...lol....
thanks for the help...lol

 

i did my rear diff fluid change and when i filled it back up it never dripped back a bit...but i filled the bottles of the new oil i put in there with the old oil i sucked out and it came up to about the same....and its been on my mind to fill it up until it drips back, is good if i add some more new fluid in there after i have been driving with that fluid for about 5 days??

 

i highly dought 5 days will hurt anything....but ask jake or drew...

 

the AAM diff covers actualy have a max fill line 1/4 inch below the fill hole. . .too much fluid may cause frothing of the oil and actualy lower the lubrication you need.
