Planetary Hubs
The planetary hubs in the rear axle are open and
part of the rear axle, and get their oil supply when
the differential is filled with oil. The oil level can
still be checked at each hub, independent to the
differential oil level plugs.
When draining the oil from the rear axle, rotate the
rear wheels so the drain plugs of the planet hubs are
at the bottom, remove the plugs from the centre
differential housing and the drain plugs from the
planetary hubs. Replace the plugs when all the oil has
drained.
Fill the rear differential to the level plugs in the
differential housing and the planet hubs.
The front planet hubs need to be filled individually
as they are separate from the centre differential.
To check the oil in the front planet hubs, the front
wheel needs to be rotated so the oil level plug is in
the level position.
Remove the plug and see if the oil is level with the
plug or just below, if no oil can be seen, more oil
needs to be added to bring it back up to level.
To drain the front axle, remove the drain plugs from
the centre differential housing. Replace when all the
oil has drained.
Fill the front differential to the level plugs in the
differential housing.
To drain the front planetary hub, rotate the front
wheel so the drain plug is at the bottom. Remove
the level plug to help the oil drain from the hub.
Replace the plugs when all the oil has drained.
Fill the front planet hubs to the level plugs.
