evident the transfer case fluid level may be low. Have the
transfer case serviced immediately.

with low transfer case fluid.

Drain and Refill
Refer to “Maintenance Schedule” for further information.
NOTE: The presence of water in the gear lubricant will
result in corrosion and possible failure of differential
components. Operation of the vehicle in water, as may be
encountered in some off-highway types of service, will
require draining and refilling the axle to avoid damage.
Lubricant Selection
Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in
“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further information.
Rear Axle
Rear axle limited-slip differentials require the use of
MOPAR
௡ Limited-Slip Additive or equivalent. Refer to
“Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintaining
Your Vehicle” for further information. This should be
added to the gear lubricant whenever a fluid change is
made, when equipped with limited-slip differential. Rear
axle fluid level should be 1/4 in (6.4 mm) below filler
plug for 8-1/4 in, and 9-1/4 in axles.
