How do I go about changing the fluids in my Tcase?

 

There's a big screw on the bottom of the T-Case, this is to drain it. Then you undo the one on the side, get a funnel with long hose, put it in there, fill it until it starts overfilling or 0.68qt.

Car should have all wheels flat on the ground, not raised.

I usually would still ride it for couple miles and then top it off.

If you don't have a lift, then you have to lower it when filling it up.

Use OEM DiaQueen Gear Fluid

 

You most likely won't be able to fill it all in one go, it'll start overfilling well before you've got the right quantity in. When it starts overflowing, take a 10 minute break or so to let the oil make it's way through the gears, etc, then start filling again.

 

Awesome thanks guys. will any Mitsu dealer have the diaqueen fluid?

 

Keep filling it and waiting 10mins as said above until you truely cannot fit anymore fluid in the case. Every transfer case will give a false full reading and you might think it's full but it's not. I think I filled and waited a few minutes 4-5 times before it was actually full and no more fluid could be stuffed inside.

That write up gives me a good chuckle every time I read it.

Yea no thanks

 

Drain, pump in, wait, pump more to make sure it's full. Is that not correc then?

 

100% correct

That write up however has you making some ****tarted concoction to fill the TC through the drain hole. Waste of time

 

+1. I checked myself a few days after having filled my tcase using the OMG MUCH DANGEROUS method and it was perfectly filled.

 

I just use this:

You used something the original poster should have used well before posting these same basic maintenance questions over and over...... The search function.

 

You gonna cry though?
