9-30 Vehicle Care
How to Check Lubricant
A. Drain Plug
B. Fill Plug
To get an accurate reading, the
vehicle should be on a level
surface.
If the level is below the bottom of
the fill plug hole, located on the
transfer case, you'll need to add
some lubricant. Add enough
lubricant to raise the level to the
bottom of the fill plug hole. Use care
not to overtighten the plug.
What to Use
Refer to Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 10‑7 to
determine what kind of lubricant
to use.
