Chaning all fluids need help.

Hey,
To start off i never really did a search. I need a answer for my individual question please.
I have around 40k and i need to change my fluids. I need to know what all is nes. to change and what fluids i should buy. I know i need to change the tranny fluid i know but im unsure about the transfer case and the rear and ect. so if some1 could just give me a quick run through that would be awsome. Thanks

just take it 2 the dealer they just replaced my rear end fluid which only takes like .58qts but they only sell big bottles 4 $60-70. Screw that i dont have a lift so let someone else get dirty.

PS i would only stick with genuine driveline fluids specific 4 our cars they work just fine

As far as fluids go I love Redline, but many people including shepracing swear by synchromesh in the trans. goodluck.

Depends on the Dealer. Shouldn't be more than 250 or so.

They saw you coming dude. $$$$ (ding ding ding)

Brake pads are so easy to change on the cars too.

Dont be scared of the fluid change either. Its no worse than an oil change on your engine. Just make sure you have a good hand pump to get the fluid into the tranny and related components and you will be fine. Pep Boys should have a tool that screws onto the bottles. I use a .5qt suction gun.

When I do it in my garage I put the car up on four jack stands and get all the wheels off the ground. Make it level and you will haave plenty of room to work. Better to spend the $80 on fluids rather than $200 for fluids + labor.

Outside of my tuner ( I hold no reservations, I know crap about tuning other than what AFR's are safe, well maybe a little more than that but thats a different story) no one touches my car but me. I hate to let discount tire change my tires...if I had the equipment I would do that too.
