[QUOTE="Gavin Allan, post: 744430, member: 60736"] Todd, your post inspired me to change thetransfer case and rear axle of my wife's Outback yesterday. It was a piece of cake--took 15 minutes from start to finish! I filled 'em up with Mobil 1 75w90, so they are good to go for a long time. At 31,000 miles, both of them had a small amount of "metal dust" on their magnetic drain plugs, but I cleaned them up and filled them back up. My Trac only has 12,000 miles, but all the clunks and clangs as it goes into 4WD has me concerned, so I plan to change its transfer case lube next weekend. I got a real hard slam this afternoon driving in the rain--I was stopped at an intersection that has a railroad spur running across it and must have had a rear tire on a slick rail, because it slammed VERY HARD into 4WD for just an instant. My wife nearly jumped out of her skin when she heard the hard "CLANG". Is Mobil 1 ATF the general "best" to use for the transfer case? [/QUOTE]
