Rear End / Tranny Fluid

Re: Rear End / Tranny Fluid
Till they're full. More specificly... Fill the rear end untill it is at the bottom of the fill hole. About 3.5 pints. Fill the tranny till it's the right level on the dipstick with the engine warm and running. Not exactly sure how much it takes to refill after a drain, but the tranny holds 10 pints all together. You won't even come close to putting in 10 quarts though.

Also, make sure that you use the equa-torque additive for LSD rears. Without it, bad stuff can happen to that rear end of yours.
Hey BLinindoll, just so you know, no 4th gens came with factory 3.73s, like you said in your sig. It was either 2.73 or 3.23, depending on the option when purchased.

Right, but when your just draining the tranny, only a fraction of the fluid comes out. For example, the torque convertor holds about 3 to 4 quarts which doesn't come out when you just drain the tranny. When you do a total rebuild the tranny is dry and you have to put it ALL back in, including filling the torque convertor.
