Service refill capacity is determined by filling the axle to 1/2 - 9/16 inch (6-147mm) below the bottom of the filler hole with a vehicle on a level surface.

Add 4 oz. (118 ml) of Additive Friction Modifier XL-3 or equivalent meeting Ford specification ESE-M2C118-A, for complete fill of 8.8 inch and 9.75 inch Traction-Lok axles.
