FLUID COOLER HOSE CHANGE
Replace inlet and outlet hoses of cooler hose and their clamps.
For replacement procedure, refer to “Oil Cooler Hoses” in Section
7B.
Transfer and Differential Oil
INSPECTION
1) Check transfer case and differential for evidence of oil leak-
age.
Repair leaky point if any.
2) Make sure that vehicle is placed level for oil level check.
3) Remove level plug of transfer and differentials (front and
rear) and check oil level.
Oil level can be checked roughly by means of level plug hole.
That is, if oil flows out of level plug hole or if oil level is found
up to hole when level plug is removed, oil is properly filled.
If oil is found insufficient, pour specified amount of specified
oil.
4) Tighten level plug to specified torque.
Refer to “Oil Change” in Section 7D, 7E or 7F for tightening
torque.
CHANGE
Change transfer oil and differentials oil with new specified oil
referring to “Oil Change” in Section 7D, 7E or 7F.
[A] : Transfer
[B] : Front differential
[C] : Rear differential
1. Oil filler/level plug (Apply sealant for transfer)
2. Drain plug (Apply sealant)
CAUTION:
Hypoid gear oil must be used for differential.
