Clean the area around the check and fill plugs. Remove the check plug. The correct lubricant level is just below the
bottom of the threaded hole. If lubricant is to be added, remove the fill plug and add lubricant using a funnel. Add
lubricant slowly until lubricant starts to seep from the check plug hole. Install the check plug and the fill plug. In the
event that the lubricant is to be replaced, a drain plug is provided at the bottom of the differential housing.
