WARNING! (Continued)
• Do not allow petroleum based fluid to contaminate
the brake fluid. Brake seal components could be
damaged, causing partial or complete brake failure.
This could result in a collision.
Rear Axle And 4x4 Front Driving Axle Fluid Level
For models with 9.25 in Front Axles and 11.5 in Rear
Axles, refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in
“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further information. For
normal service, periodic fluid level checks are not re-
quired. When the vehicle is serviced for other reasons,
the exterior surfaces of the axle assembly should be
inspected.
When checking the fluid level (4500/5500 only), the
vehicle should be in a level position. The fluid level
should be ¼ in±¼in(6.4 mm ± 6.4 mm) below the fill
hole on the front axle. The fluid level should be level with
the bottom of the fill hole on the rear axle.
Drain And Refill
On 4500/5500 vehicles, remove the lower bolt to drain
the axle fluid.
