#306448 jbiv (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 152 Tranfer oil change help please 2 Years, 9 Months ago   Can anyone tell me off hand what size allen wrench fits the traansfer case oil check hole? I have to cut one to make it fit behind my pipes and knowing the size would help limit how many I have to cut. Also, once drained, can you just put a half a quart in the transfer and call it a day, or should you definetly use the check hole?

Drain the gear lube and replace by using a metered cylinder (measuring cup). That is how I change mine the last two times and never had an issue. Don't recall the amount to pour in, but I have measuring cup and a funnel, open the fill cap, drain the old lube, replace the drain plug, and then pour the measured amount back in, replace the cap and ride on.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #306483 jbiv (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 152 Re:Tranfer oil change help please 2 Years, 9 Months ago   See, that's what I was wondering. The book says 4.3 quarts capacity. Now, how much of that drains out? Does some remain like an engine oil change so you put less than what it holds in? Or does the transfer drain totally and you put in what the book says it holds?   Logged     2007 Roadstar all factory   The administrator has disabled public write access. #306484 EPRoadie (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1996 Re:Tranfer oil change help please 2 Years, 9 Months ago   Did mine last year, just drained it and put Mobile 1 Syntheic 75w-90 " 14oz " and was good to go !
