yellowblue
7-9
** Drive axle service (see ªRecommended Fluids and
Lubricantsº in the Index for proper lubricant to use):

Check fluid level and add fluid as needed. If driving
in dusty areas or when towing a trailer, drain fluid
and refill every 15,000 miles (25 000 km).

If your vehicle has a locking differential, drain fluid
and refill at first engine oil change.
More frequent lubrication may be required for
heavy
-duty or off-road use.

3500 HD Models with applications requiring
extreme overload/trailer towing conditions and
high
-speed (above 45 mph or 70 km/h) conditions
for extended periods of time must have the drive axle
fluid changed every 30,000 miles (50 000 km).
See ªRecommended Fluids and Lubricantsº in
this section.

Footnotes
 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the
California Air Resources Board has determined that the
failure to perform this maintenance item will not nullify
the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to the
completion of the vehicle's useful life. We, however,
urge that all recommended maintenance services be
performed at the indicated intervals and the maintenance
be recorded.
# Lubricate the front suspension, kingpin bushings,
steering linkage, transmission shift linkage, transfer case
shift linkage, parking brake cable guides, rear drivelinecenter splines, front axle propshaft spline and brake
pedal springs. Ball joints and kingpin bushings should
not be lubricated unless their temperature is 10F
(
-12C) or higher, or they could be damaged.
+ A good time to check your brakes is during tire
rotation. See ªBrake System Inspectionº under ªPeriodic
Maintenance Inspectionsº in Part C of this schedule.
** Drive axle service (see ªRecommended Fluids and
Lubricantsº in the Index for proper lubricant to use):

Check fluid level and add fluid as needed.

If your vehicle has a locking differential, drain fluid
and refill at first engine oil change.

3500 HD Models with applications requiring
high
-speed (above 45 mph or 70 km/h) operation for
extended periods of time must have the drive axle
fluid changed every 30,000 miles (50 000 km).
