I was a bit apprehensive after reading the thread on changing front and rear differentials and the transfer case however it went well. No stubborn plugs or issues. I used Amsoil Severe Duty snthetic 75/90 so should be good for awhile. Thanks to mann777 for the sticky !

See ? Not so bad? I hate new things. But once you do it once you learn that it ain't so bad. Oh that and gear oil smells aweful.

I used a small hand pump, not the fastest but not messy either.
