Normal Vehicle Axle Maintenance
❑Rear axles and power take-off (PTO) units containing synthetic lubricant and light duty trucks equipped with Ford-design axles
are lubricated for life. These lubricants are not to be checked or changed unless a leak is suspected, service is required or
the axle assembly has been submerged in water. The axle and PTO lubricant should be changed anytime the axle and PTO
have been submerged in water. Non-synthetic rear axle lubricants should be replaced every 3,000 miles (5,000 km) or 3
months, whichever occurs first, during extended trailer tow operation above 70°F (21°C) ambient and wide open throttle for
extended periods above 45 mph (72 km/h). The 3,000 mile (5,000 km) lube change interval may be waived if the axle
was filled with 75W140 synthetic gear lubricant meeting Ford specification WSL-M2C192-A, part number F1TZ-19580-B or
equivalent. Add four ounces (118 mL)of additive friction modifier C8AZ-19B546-A (EST-M2C118-A) or equivalent for complete
refill of Traction-Lok rear axles. The axle lubricant should be changed anytime an axle has been submerged in water.
