Front and Read Diff Level ?
I drained my rear diff today and when I filled it up it only took 2.0 quarts.
I had written down that 2.1 was the correct amount but it slightly drained out of the fill hole with only 2 quarts.
Is this alright?
Front diff I put about ~1.8 in
I had written down someplace that it only takes 1.5. It was not spilling out when I stopped, however when I put my pinky in the whole and pulled it out my finger had oil on it so I would assume it is full.
Is this alright?
I taped a pplastic bottle to my front diff overflow hose. Last time I filled it alot of oil came out the overflow. last time I filled it until it was pouring out though.
Neither diff was hot when I changed, I didn't want to spend $$ wasting as to warm it up. I just took it around the block before I replaced the oil.
BTW, the amsoil in the front diff still looked brand new with roughly 25k on it. I don't even know if it was necessary to replace the oil in the front diff, or if I really should do 30k intervals with this oil (Can I go more?), it looked just like new oil! The rear had the factory oil in it with over 10k on it and it was smelly and discolored a bit. I was changing it early because of break in.
Thanks in advance.
