ml (4 oz.) of Additive Friction Modifier XL-3 or equivalent meeting Ford
specification EST-M2C118±A for complete refill of Traction-Lok rear axle.
Service refill capacities are determined by filling the rear axle 6 mm to

6Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Engine
oil need only meet the requirements of Ford specification
