Always remove the fill plug on a transfer case or differential before draining fluid. If the fill plug is frozen or stripped, you can order a new plug or cover and do the job later. If you drain the fluid first and you destroy that plug getting it out, you just disabled your truck until you can get new parts.
Use a putty knife, not a screwdriver to open it up, you will bend your cover or gouge your housing. And use the correct silicone made for gear oil and friction modifiers. Permatex makes it. Make sure you make circles around the bolt holes and only hand tighten the bolts and let cure for about an hour, then tighten to specs. If not you will squeeze out all the gasket maker too thin and might leak? You should see the sealant come out all the way around the outside of the cover if you do it right. Once it comes out after hand tightening, stop. Wait for an hour, then torque it down. Temperatures will change that time if colder?
I have worked in the auto industry for 36 years. The reason the manufacture use sealant is because it is more economical and applied using a robot. I use a gasket when changing fluids in my F250 diffs. Never had a leak.
Hey kidderz! I am 66 and just changed my 2000 superduty f250 front diff with 80w90 gear/diff oil conventional. I have cursed the stubborn 4x4 turning. I just drove the field round about the brush pile! Wow! Sharp turns with no hang-ups!!!!!!! Never knew the heavy old muddy oil would restrict turning. I also dumped and flushed grey metal sparkles from the transfer case! I added proper atf.
Thanks brother... Used 80W90 Valvoline in squeeze bottle. Front Dana 60 was simple drain and fill. In lieu of gooey gasket, I used Lubelocker's reusable gasket - 4 weeks and no leaks. IIRC, torque was 30-32 ft lbs.
A old man from one of the gasket sealant companies showed me how they recommend installing their sealant and ever since then I have yet to have a leak. He said one that we all use extremely way too much. It should not squeeze out. Nor should it slide around. He showed me to use very little and then use your finger and pat it over and over spreading thinly like a gasket on the surface. You pat it with your finger so you do not have a smooth surface but lots of ridges. Do both sides the same way and by the time your done it’s thin enough it should be tacky. Install and done. No mess out the sides. No sliding around. A complete seal.
Love it! I was able to drain, clean diff and cover edges. I used Master Pro GL-5 80W 90 gear oil. Waiting for the hour to be up so I can fill diff.. we’ll see 👍🏻
Thankyou for your dedication in taking the time to make these videos to help us Powerstroke owners out with our maintenance. I am going to be doing the front and rear diff fluid change on my 16 F250 here soon. Front diff started seeping a bit and at 70k, its about that time for a fluid change any ways.
Appreciate the time & effort in making these videos. I’ll be doing the front/rear along with my transmission filter/fluid change when I get back from out of town….long overdue at 105k. Will be using only FoMoCo fluids.
ARod I can’t thank you enough for the great instruction you provided in all your videos, thank you brother. I’m trying to knock out all of maint items off of your recommended schedule. Thank you sir
I just changed my fluid. The diff cover bolts were stupid tight. I needed an 18” breaker bar to get them off (from the factory). They also had blue loctite on them. 85,000 miles and the oil looked good.
I pumped green fluid out of a front differential on a 2003 F250 6.0 Powerstroke super duty king ranch today. I don't know what it was but the only I can find online that is green is Shell Spirax sae 30. I put the limited slip differential additive and 80w90 full synthetic gear oil when I filled the front differential. My video is called "2003 Ford F-250 6.0 liter King Ranch 4x4 front and rear differential drain and fill". That Green sludge from the front differential was ridiculously hard to pump out it was like sae 200 weight.

Front diff only spins in 4x4 overheating is not a problem with front diff cause nobody tows heavy for hours in 4x4. Also banks is weak design for front diff being exposed to road debrit or off road rocks logs etc.

@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod I've used an evacuation set up to suck out the oil through the fill hole. Not much room to get the hose past the ring gear, but with a little finagling . . .
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod I mainly ask because I used that method to change the transmission fluid in my John Deere's shitty k46 transmission and replaced it with amsoil. And it was like a new transmission afterwards. So I guess it really comes down to getting any metal shavings that may be contaminating the fluid or would a 95% evacuation be even worthwhile and beneficial. Between you and my local diesel mechanic David, I respect your opinion and I also respect the fact that you have to do things according to the book even when sometimes the book is not correct. And I'm referring to your 7.3 silicone versus 6.7 silicone and the manufacturers disconnect on its intended purpose and being around diesel fuel.
The Ford Manual F 350 6.7 DRW Dana 80 Recommends an additive to the diff fluid. Your thoughts? I didn’t see or hear you mention using any additives. Thanks
The benefit is pretty much the same as changing any other fluid. The diff fluid get dirty and contaminated from the wearing of the parts inside. The fluid properties can break down over time too. So the benefit would be to help make the parts last longer. Fluid is a lot cheaper than new parts and not having to deal with a failure and all that goes with that.
PowerStroke Tech Talk w/ARod While making my girl friend watch this on the couch with me... she express grave disappointment in there being not air tool noise lol
Just did both on my 2016 super duty at 70k miles. Only change was i used lucas oils and their pump. Sealant has to sit and cure. No joke there. - Gear oil STINKS!! Yuck.
mental note- 2017 / silicone rtv TA-31 / put in 80w/90 / - my notes only - weird they changed from the clear silicone ta-32 sometime after 04, never had an issue and lasted 17 years.

What’s the benefit of draining diff and replacing fluid? Is that what we feel on the steering wheel?
🤯
The benefit is pretty much the same as changing any other fluid. The diff fluid get dirty and contaminated from the wearing of the parts inside. The fluid properties can break down over time too. So the benefit would be to help make the parts last longer. Fluid is a lot cheaper than new parts and not having to deal with a failure and all that goes with that.
Fun fact: the easiest way to get a divorce is to come home with used gear oil on your shirt
🤣🤣🤣🤣😝😝😝😝
Don’t forget the anti seize to go with the gear oil lol 😂
Didn't say how much it took
He also doesn't know the proper torque specs. Really bad mechanic.
30 foot pounds same as the rear

I like uga duga too
Just did both on my 2016 super duty at 70k miles. Only change was i used lucas oils and their pump. Sealant has to sit and cure. No joke there. - Gear oil STINKS!! Yuck.
Si
You didnt know the torque spec? or just couldnt say in the video? WILD
Neither. I didn't torque because I've done this job NINE hundred times. I know when it's tight.
....it's not a lug nut.....
mental note- 2017 / silicone rtv TA-31 / put in 80w/90 / - my notes only - weird they changed from the clear silicone ta-32 sometime after 04, never had an issue and lasted 17 years. On gear oil - Mine 03 f250 5.4 gas 4x4 non super dana 60 oil spec.has discrepencies between book manual and owners manual in part number ??? was 75/90 hypoid sae 90, but said rear axle oil on bottle, again ??? UPDATE - called ford dealer parts, they dont even know and cant find due to age !?!? Found there is a actual s"ynthetic, hypoid, gear lubricant" not for L.S.D. # xy75w85ql ford updated for use in ford trucks to 1996 and have found reviews that said they use this in new fords ???
Si!
You're supposedly a mechanic and you don't know the torque specs and you're expecting someone to just put in the comments section for you. That's really scary! Nobody should be taking their vehicles to you!
Get bent google boy, YOU clearly cannot read between the lines. Cheerio mister know it all
So dumb they don’t put in drain plugs
