2 Removing the Existing Differential
5
2.1
Vehicle Support
Safely secure the vehicle on a hoist. We recommend supporting
the vehicle on a chassis hoist to keep the differential area at a
convenient working height and to leave the wheels and axles free
to be rotated and removed.
Once supported off the ground, release the parking brake and
leave the vehicle in neutral. Chock the wheels if necessary.
2.2
Differential Fluid Drain
HINT : This is a good time to check for metal particles in
your oil, on your drain plug, or in the bottom of the
housing which may indicate a worn bearing or
differential component.
Clean around the differential cover plate seal to prevent dirt from
entering the differential.
Position a fluid drain reservoir under the differential and loosen all
differential cover plate retaining bolts.
If a drain plug exists, remove it and completely drain all differential
oil from the housing.
If no drain plug exists then the oil can be drained by loosening the
cover bolts and gently prying the cover away at the bottom until oil
runs out.
HINT : If a drain plug does not exist then it would be a good
idea to drill and tap for a tapered oil drain plug to assist
with future oil changes.
Once drained, remove the differential cover plate.
