1Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.2Rear axle lubricants do not need to be checked or changed unless a leak is suspected, service is
required or the axle assembly has been submerged in water. The axle lubricant should be changed
any time the rear axle has been submerged in water. For vehicles with a cooler, the axle pump
must be running to perform the service refill.
Fill 1/4-9/16 inch (6-14 millimeters) below bottom of fill hole.3The TREMEC 6060 6-speed manual transmission on your Shelby GT500 uses MERCON® V
automatic transmission fluid. Make sure that the correct MERCON® V ATF automatic transmission
fluid is used as indicated on the label on your transmission.4Service refill capacity is determined by filling the transmission to the bottom of the filler hole with
the vehicle on a level surface. For vehicles with a transmission cooler, the engine must be running,
the clutch pedal must be released, and the transmission must be in neutral to perform the service
refill.
