Allison Transmission service
Doc, I looked and searched high and low and did not come up with much as far as cheaper filters. I agree with Scott about how to get the fluid out of the trans. Here is another link to a step by step process to do this. It sounds to me like there is a risk of making a huge mess if this is not done correctly. I suspect you have probably seen this already; but just in case. I changed the trans. pan on my Suburban which had the 4L80E and installed the Mag-Hytech pan and Hastings filter. I don't Mag-Hytech makes a pan for the Allison yet but you may be able to cross reference the trans. filters.

Scott, did your JD dealer get you taken care of on the 50 hr. service stuff for your 790? Dave, Geno's sells a neat little contraption that makes putting oil in the gearboxes a snap. I use one of those pumps that goes on the oil bottles I got from Wally World.

Doc, I am not sure what axle you have but I had the GM 14 bolt semi-floater axle on my K2500 Suburban. When I put the Mag-Hytech diff. covers on them, I filled them with Amsoil Series 2000 75W-90. The bottle and the website says that the oil already has a limited slip friction modifier added to it. I just put it in and did not add anything. It worked great but that is no guarantee yours will but after you fill the diff. Drive around in figure 8's to distribute the new oil and work the posi. unit. If you continue to get chattering after a reasonable amount of time, you may have to add some friction modifier. Try adding about 6 to 8 onces at a time. You don't want to over do it.

Yes indeed! You need a 40 acre field to turn around in. That is one reason I got that 3 pt. trailer hitch reciever fabbed up.
