  Fluid replacement

never have changed or had anyone change mine. Never gave it any heavy duty use except for my van which pulled the bass boat. the engine blew up at 240,000 miles and 12 years old. Its worth was $850 blue book. I change oil every 3,000 mi. with a lube. When I finish with a veichle it is worthless. Drive'em unil they die.

  Fluid replacement

Unfortunately, many owners disregard the drive train oils.

I have always felt that ALL the drive train oils should be changed after the initial 15-20K miles. There is a lot of metals that are part of the maufacturing that get in the oil during the breakin period. Since transfer cases and differentials are not filtered, the excess particulates just cause undue wear. Same is true for an auto tranny, even though it is filtered.

I like using synthetics throughout, like Amsoil, but even it you stick with the OEM type of oils, CHANGE THE OIL!

Your vehicle will appreciate it! Smile
