    Proper sequence for avoiding the splash. 1. Loosen the fill plug and snug it back up, finger tight. 2. Remove the drain plug--the vacuum will prevent the large outrush of fluid. 3. Remove fill plug once the large outrush of fluid has slowed.

    Just did oil changes with Amsoil 75w90 and it comes in bags now making oil changes a breeze. No pump necessary as you can manipulate the sturdy bags to fit. And just squeeze it in there. Very convenient. No I’m not a Amsoil dealer. Just made life easier.

    A couple pro tips, like you did driving over to your folks place get some heat in the oil flows much easier also crack the fill plug loose but don't take it out all the way that way when you take the drain plug loose the oil drains slowly and you don't run the risk of over shooting your drain pan or making a big mess. Once you got the drain plug out then take the fill out the rest of the way. Good Job and good explanation!

I also added 6 ounces of L/S additive to the rear diff. If I had gone to the dealer each diff change would have been 149.99 including the transfer case.

I was lazy and didn't want to order these n i have dealership right up the road n i believe i paid like 20 or 21 bucks for these washers and 2 oil plug washers (why they call some of the washers n some gaskets is just plain stupid to me, anything i put on the end of a bolt to me is a waher lol). Anyway if you read this how much fluid should i purchase if im doing front, transfer and rear diff? I have a 2nd gen 2.7l obv 4x4.

    Hey David! It's been awhile since I had the factory skid plate so i can't remember if it goes back far enough to block your access. Good news is that it comes right off with just a few bolts and it's nice to have more your to maneuver, especially when dropping that oil out of the bottom.

    ***Heads Up***That drain plug on the front diff is a whore, I stripped it out almost completely trying to loosen it. Stop what you are doing and get a new plug. PB blaster twice 2 days before. Its just a crap design with dissimilar metals, and a little 10mm hex key and a huge plug. So if you have a little left to grip the trick is to lightly tap the back of the head of the breaker bar with a very small 6 oz ballpien hammer while slowly gently loosening it. Then after a few minutes it breaks the seal you smash yourknuckles but you did it. It got a little nickel anti seize before being reinstalled and torqued to spec.
