Selection of Lubricant
Use only manufacturer’s recommended fluid. Refer to
“Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in this section
for the correct fluid type.
Maintenance After Off-Road Driving
After extended operation in mud, sand or water, or
similar dirty conditions, have your brake drums, brake
linings, and axle joints inspected and cleaned as soon as
possible. This will prevent any abrasive material from
causing excessive wear or unpredictable braking action.
Following off-road usage, completely inspect the under-
body of your vehicle. Check the tires, body structure,
steering, suspension and exhaust system for damage.
Check the threaded fasteners for looseness, particularly
on the chassis, drivetrain components, steering and sus-
pension. Retighten, if required, to torque values specified
in the Service Manual. Also check for accumulations of
vegetation or brush that could become a fire hazard, orconceal damage to fuel lines, brake hoses, axle pinion
seals, and propeller shafts. Check the air conditioning
drain tube on the lower dash wall in the engine compart-
ment for mud or debris, and clean as required. A plugged
tube will adversely affect air conditioning performance.CAUTION!
Under frequent heavy-duty driving conditions,
change all lubricants, and lubricate body compo-
nents more often than in normal service to prevent
excessive wear.
Appearance Care and Protection from Corrosion
Protection of Body and Paint from Corrosion
