System Fluid. If your coolant is orange in color, use Ford Extended Life
Engine Coolant. Refer toAdding engine coolant, in the Maintenance
and Care chapter.
2Fill to 6 mm to 14 mm (1/4 inch to 9/16 inch) below bottom of fill hole.
3Vehicles equipped with a 4.0L SOHC V6 engine may be equipped with a
conventional rear axle. Refer to your Scheduled Maintenance Guide for
axle fluid change intervals.
4Vehicles equipped with 4.0L SOHC V6 engine and 3.73:1 or 4.10:1 rear
axle ratios or with a 5.0L V8 engine require synthetic rear axle lubricant.
Rear axles containing synthetic lubricant are lubricated for life. These
lubricants are not to be checked or changed unless a leak is suspected or
service is required. The axle lubricant should be changed any time the
axle has been submerged in water.
Add 118 ml (4 oz.) of additive friction modifier C8AZ-19B546-A, Ford
specification EST-M2C118±A for complete refill of Traction-Lok axles.
