Question About Transmission & Diff Fluid?

[TRACKDAY]

Hello All,

I plan on servicing and changing the fluid in the transmission and rear differential very soon due to track use.

Can anyone advise how many quarts the transmission and rear differential need for a complete flush and re-fill?

Thanks in advance

4 quarts for transmission, 2 quarts for the rear diff. You'll use a little less than that in both.

Don't forget friction modifier for the rear diff.

It actually is a lot less than 2 quartz for the diff, but you'll need 2 because they don't sell 0,3-0,4 quartz...
Just in case you think while refilling that you didn't properly drain it.

I change my diff and tranny oil all the time, I have used mopar, royal purple , and now I'm running amzoil what a big difference the amzoil made on my car, runs smother, cooler and much less Noise

Great information........I was debating whether to use Royal Purple or Amsoil.

I think I'll go with Amsoil since you've had good results with it

I did not like royal purple at all, the tranny shifts much better with the amzoil.

Is there a DIY on how to change the fluids somewhere on the forums?

Nog sure, but it's dead easy. Make sure the fluids aren't stone cold so they run out well. Make sure the car is level on stands or a lift; pull the plug, let it drip untill drips come out once a minute, or less. Put the plug back in at about 25nm or tight by hand. Fill her right up untill it's level with the bottem side of the fillhole...clean her up, job done.
Don't forget friction modifier in the diff and I always flush the diff with about a 1/4 of a quart, you'll have enough anyway...

Good luck
