oil change
 

yup, another 10,000 k has come, time for new oil only this time I did the diffs and tranny also. did not do the t-case as its only 3 months old, just checked the level and color. needless to say the diffs were black, tranny wasn't too bad, engine was getting dark. shell rotella t for engine, dodge nv3500 (14.99/L) for tranny and good old 75/90 for diffs with that fiction stuff for the rear diff. ahhh, I love the smell of fresh rotella from my breather first thing in the morning

Sweet ITs a good Feeling when driving knowing everything is all lubes up and nice and smooth

now all I need to do is install the new front drive shaft tonight and she's all back together

$14.99 A LITRE?

I believe you could have went with ATF +3 - its MUCH cheaper.


BTW, welcome to the site - we dont have a lot of guys from Edmonton here...

sorry the 14.99 L is the oil for the tranny. interesting looking stuff, kind of reminds me of the univus extra we use in high temp application, high horse power pump motors.

manual tranny doc.

:se:

My Bad....I missed that one.

I just changed mine, used RedLine MTL from Mopac Racing...got it for less than $10 a litre.

Did you overfill it?

yes, parked it on the curb and got an extra litre in it. I had also changed out the rear seal prior to the oil change so hopefully it stops leaking, at that price I don't want to loose it between the tranny and t-case

u go 10k on a change?

i think im way overdoing it, i do mine every 3 months and usually that works out to like 2200km,, still 4 oil changes a year deosnt seem rediculous. when u look into the filler hole on your valve cover, is it kindof burnt and grungy lookin? rotella is dirt cheap, the way i change mine everything looks brandnew, might be worth it in the long run to do more frequent drains.? btw fresh rotella smell is hot, i agree.
