opus Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 The oil in the 5spd is way too thick for running in cold weather, so, synthetic in order. Whats it like to change...straight forward? Or do I need a $75 special tool? ) What is the capacity of the tranny? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 2wd or 4wd? or is it Full Time 4WD? 3.5 qts for 4WD...and 3.7 for the Dual range 4WDs and Full time trans... 2WD...i think its...2.7 or so...but the turbo 2wd XT 5spds are 3.5 qts IIRC.

That would be a dual range 4wd. Is the drain and fill plug pretty evident?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 That would be a dual range 4wd. Should be 3.5/3.7 qts then. U will just need a large wrench/socket to get the trans drain plug out...I think its 24 MM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 I would highly recommend doing the rear diff while you're at it, not only for the sake of having synthetic in there, but mainly to get all the crap out that's likely in the oil by now.

Snowman Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 I'm pretty happy with the Quaker state synthetic that I'm running right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
