the front differential takes around 1/2 quart of trans.fluid.That being said,with the transmission and front differential oil change,it takes around 4.25-4.5 qts.(trans fluid) Transfer case,and rear differential takes 1qt each of gear oil.

In the step 10, you drained almost 2qt of AT fluid thru the cooler line, are you adding new AT fluid at the same time thru the dip stick hole?

It is a little difficult to fill and drain at the same time even with another helper. I overfilled about 1 quart before pumping through cooler line, then put in the difference later.

My mother has a 99 Rx300 w/ nearly 120,000 miles. The ATF was changed once at 60k. I dont think the gasket or filter was changed. How important is it to have these two items changed?

Also, whats the difference b/w DIfferential Oil & Torque Sensing LSD Oil? The service manual says to replace both at 120k. thanks
