Exceptions
In addition, there are several exceptions to the Normal Schedule. They
are listed below:
Normal vehicle axle maintenance
Rear axles and power take-off (PTO) units containing synthetic lubricant
and light duty trucks equipped with Ford-design axles are lubricated for
life. These lubricants are not to be checked or changed unless a leak is
suspected, service is required or the axle assembly has been submerged
in water. The axle and PTO lubricant should be changed anytime the
axle and PTO have been submerged in water. Non-synthetic rear axle
lubricants should be replaced every 3,000 miles (5,000 km) or 3 months,
whichever occurs first, during extended trailer tow operation above 70°F
(21°C) ambient and wide open throttle for extended periods above 45
mph (72 km/h). The 3,000 mile (5,000 km) lube change interval may be
waived if the axle was filled with 75W140 synthetic gear lubricant
meeting Ford specification WSL-M2C192-A, part number F1TZ-19580-B
or equivalent. Add four ounces (118 mL)of additive friction modifier
C8AZ-19B546-A (EST-M2C118-A) or equivalent for complete refill of
Traction-Lok rear axles. The axle lubricant should be changed anytime
an axle has been submerged in water.
E-450, F-450 and F-550 Series axle maintenance
Replace rear axle lubricant every 100,000 miles (160,000 km) under
normal driving conditions on all F-450 and F-550 commercial
applications. For F-450 and F-550 trucks operated at or near maximum
Gross Vehicle Weights, the rear axle lubricant should be replaced every
