I want to go to synthetics now...

how's shiipping for enough fluid to do the front dif, rear dif, and transfer case to the 44802??
 
Hey Guys If you could please PM me your city, state and zip code. This will ensure accurate pricing. I physically key the order as I if I was placing the order to get your total. Again You pay what I pay as a dealer.

Thanks
Shawn

I changed my rear diff at around 15000 with just some 75/90 I got from Autozone for around $5 a gallon and added a package of the limited slip stuff. Works fine and I have towed my 7K lb trailer. Now that I have 22K miles I'm switching to Schaeffers 293 gear oil in both front and rear diffs. Just bought a case of 12 quarts direct from Schaeffer.

I'm also running their 9000 synthetic in the engine since my last change at 17500 miles. I had been losing 1 quart every 4000 miles before and now have not lost any. (Likely cure was the PCV reroute I did at the same time and not the oil.

Based on information I've read on other sites, the manufacturer of the transfer case actually recommended the use of 3 quarts of 5W-30 in the transfer case and not ATF. I'm going to put the Schaeffers 5W-40 in it when I change the diffs.





My truck now has 14k on it and towing season for the RV is firing up.

I want to do both diff's and transfer case for now. I think it's too early to do the tranny (did the filter).

Can someone please tell me what are the best synthetics to use and quantities I want to buy?
Also, can these systems be flushed out to remove the new truck shavings?
