Rear Diff oil
Item Subject: Text_1
I went to put some oil in the rear diff of m '87 5kSQ last night as I
have leaking seals that I'm going to replace eventually. My Bentley
manual was of zero assistance in telling me where the oil goes in, how
to get it in, and how much. There are plugs all over the case that
look like they could be filler plugs. There are 3 very large socket
head plugs(one on the forward bottom of the case, one on the rear
bottom of the case, and one on the right side behind the CV joint that
is barely visible with the fuel tank skidplate off.) There are also 2
hex heads on the bottom of the diff case (one on the center bottom and
one slightly up and to the left. If anyone can tell me the procedure
for filling the diff and what to use to pump oil up there, I and my
differential gears will greatly appreciated it.
