[QUOTE="RMYLY, post: 1035667, member: 73185"] Heres my situation... Bought a high-mileage ( 180K MI.) Adrenalin V8 in Aug and love it to death.Previously had a 2003 and 2004 ST. Todd suggested to change ALL FLUIDS and i will do as he commands. Its too cold to do anything now so will research/buy what i need in the next 4/5 mo and be ready to go in spring. Have researched the diff oil and am leaning towards Amsoil which seems so far to be rated/tested the best.I already have the Ford Friction Modifier which i have heard is still necessary with the synthetic-oil on AWD diffs ( Amsoil still recommends it) Questions.. 1. Todd mentioned the FRONT diff and using the hand-pump due to lack of space to refill.Amsoil sells theirs in a foil-bag with a 2" spout...i am thinking that this would require a lot less clearance to pour. Would it be possible on this Gen 2 to refill with this kind of pkg ? Anyone ever use this on the front? 2. On the TRANSMISSION pan-drop and fill....how much fluid would normally be drained out...how much would i need to refill it? 3. What brand/type tranny-fluid do you recommend ? Thanks again [/QUOTE]
