I just got done changing the transmission fluid and x-case. I bought 7 qts of oil. Used 6 1/4 qt.
For the transmission the book states 7.76 pts. Which equals out to be 1.97 qts. I put 3 qts in and the fluid was just below the fill hole. I added another quart to be safe. The x-case took 2.5 qts. IS 80-90 fine for the x-case? Book called or ATF. I went with 80-90. They had 75-90 but wanted $4.49. 80-90 was $3.22. I figured 80-90 was close enough and why waste 1.27 on the lighter weight. Transmission is shifting extremely smooth now. We’ll see how long it lasts. 1995 KC XE-V6 4x4. |

The book said 1.97qt???? or is that your bad math? it's around 3.9 qts. Add an extra- that would be 5 qts total. And you did use GL-4, correct? .....................

That would be my horrible math. Yes I used costal GL-4. Today I changed the rear gear lube. Took almost 4 qts of oil. Question- would LSD additive help the Detroit locker? Tomorrow I will be changing the front axle fluid. Had to go and buy more oil. So fare the total is 17qts of fluid I've bought. 1995 KC XE-V6 4x4. |

I wouldnt use the additive. Its designed for clutch packs, and you dont have any.

DAtz, and a few others have used GL-4 inthe T-case - lasts longer( stays more "lube-like") than the ATF. I think he said something like- "it poured out like water"( while draining ATF from the T-case). ..................... "Climate change is no longer science. It's politics...

That’s the main reason why I went with gear lube in the x-case. ATF is just insanely to thin. This will be my 2nd time changing the x-case. The atf was black, black and thin liquid.

So you added 4 qts- and the book calls out 4qts. Don't the 87- 95 4x4 tmanual trans need an extra quart to keep the bearings from dieing early? .....................

Administrator N4W Card Holder Arrr.. Me good eye! Ultimate N4Wheeler  |
10-4! I burned a fresh change of ATF in the t-case in one week of hard wheeling.. it was burned, black, and was thin as water. I replaced it with 80w-90 gear oil and its been fine. Drained it for the first time in almost 2 years last week and it still looked good. And just to clarify.. I used GL5 rated stuff in the T-case, as there are no synchros in it to ruin. GL4 is only needed for the manual transmissions. GL5 can be used everywhere else. ------------------------------------------------------------  <--Click Me!"As a lion is to a cat, so is a mastiff compared to a dog."

Since there actually are yellow metals in the rear portion of the t-case, I opted to play it safe and went GL4 in the t-case. MT-90 just like the Tranny. Pricey stuff, but it only takes two quarts.
