Specifications

Raise the vehicle so the wheels are about a foot off
the floor. Make sure the wheels can spin freely
without obstruction from the hoist or any nearby
items. Start the vehicle and put the transmission in
second gear. Slowly accelerate to 10 mph and hold
this speed for one minute. Turn the vehicle off.
Raise the vehicle. Check the fluid level in the
differential. Add fluid until the recommended level
is reached. Lower the vehicle.
Once the differential fluid has been changed, the
vehicle must be driven in 8-10 tight figure eight
maneuvers to heat the fluid and allow the fluid to
be worked into the clutch plates.
