Front Axle

When to Check and Change Lubricant

It is not necessary to regularly check front axle ﬂuid

unless you suspect there is a leak or you hear an

unusual noise. A ﬂuid loss could indicate a problem.

Have it inspected and repaired.

How to Check Lubricant

To get an accurate reading, the vehicle should be on a

level surface.

If the level is below the bottom of the ﬁller plug hole,

you may need to add some lubricant.

When the differential is cold, add enough lubricant to

raise the level from 1/2 inch (12 mm) to about 5/8 inch

(18 mm) below the ﬁller plug hole for the 1500 Series

and from 1/4 inch (6 mm) to about 3/8 inch (10 mm) for

the 2500 Series.

When the differential is at operating temperature

(warm), add enough lubricant to raise the level to the

bottom of the ﬁller plug hole.

What to Use

Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what

kind of lubricant to use. See Recommended Fluids

and Lubricants on page 6-13.
