Transfer Case: Service and Repair: General Procedures

Transfer Case Draining and Filling








1. Remove the drain plug and drain the fluid. Clean and reinstall the drain plug.





2. CAUTION: Incorrect fluid fill can result in transfer case failure.

NOTE: The fluid level should be just below the fin plug.

NOTE: Clean the area around the fill plug.

Remove the fill plug, and fill the transfer case.
- The fluid must be just below the fill plug hole. Because you can reach the fluid with a finger does not mean the fluid is at the correct level. Make sure the fluid is level with the filler opening for the correct fluid level.
