Differential service, etc.
Howdy,
I'm planning on changing my front and rear differential fluids as part of my 60,000 mile service plan. I have done a little bit of offroading, and have towed only three times (less than 6,000 lbs each time).
Question 1: I don't really want to remove the rear differential cover, so I plan on using a hand pump to suck the fluid out, and then refill. What about contaminants not being removed? Big deal or not so much?
Question 2: How can I check the condition/serviceability of my rear limited slip assembly? Yes, I'm aware that I'll probably end up removing the diff cover for this. At least I'll have the fluid out first!
