LOST JEEPS :: View topic - differential fluid change

greetings all.

wondering how many of you changed your diff/axle fluid per the recommended 35K on the B schedule?

don't have a repair manual yet, so if you have, any tips on doing it?

thanks.

thanks gents. will be ordering the cd manual, so will be able to get to it soon.

I'm finally getting around to these changes too. I've been very good about the oil changes, especially with the Fumoto. Any tips (link) for the pump? Also, a while back I saw an aftermarket rear diff cover with a drain/fill that would eliminate dinking around with nuts and bolts and gaskets. Where can I get one? Thanks!

Ouch! That's a lot of cabbage for a little convenience. Here's a direct link http://www.yourcovers.com/dc_9864.shtml $180.00 for the cheapy! :cry:

Any other options? I guess I could do a search :oops:

but maybe someone has some experience with a specific product.

thanks for the suggestion, but after looking at the co. index of manauals i realize i don't know the liberty's two letter code - kj, etc.

Anyone interested in contacting them about a LostKJ discount/group buy? - Chris

The 93-98 Grand Cherokee ZJ. The 99-04 Grand Cherokee is the WJ. The 05+ Grand Cherokee is the WK. The 97-06 Wrangler is the TJ. The 07+ Wrangler is the JK. I would recommend that you download this version of the manual: http://colorado4wheel.com/manuals/Jeep/ ... -KJ-SM.pdf Everything in contained in one PDF unlike the 05 FSM which has seperate sections for the diesel/gas, body, etc.
