Postby rysermon on Tue, 09 Jul 2013 7:11 +0000

hey dudes,

i have done a lil searching and found a few answers but in short, doing a gearbox and transfer case oil change this weekend
i believe its 2.3 ltrs into the box and 1 litre into the transfer case? can anyone give me any tips if thats close to what it needs do you just fill it till it spills out similar to a diff?

cheers guys

2.2L in gearbox, 1L in transfer
both:
Oil grade:
GL-4 or GL-5
Viscosity:
SAE 75W-90

pretty much within 5mm of the fill plug level.
