1

Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.

2

Rear axle lubricants do not need to be checked or changed unless a

leak is suspected, service is required or the axle assembly has been
submerged in water. The axle lubricant should be changed any time the
rear axle has been submerged in water. Fill 1/4 inch to 9/16 inch (6 mm
to 14 mm) below bottom of fill hole. Add 4 oz. (118 ml) of Additive
Friction Modifier XL–3 or equivalent meeting Ford specification
EST-M2C118–A for complete refill of Traction-Lok axles.

3

Ensure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. MERCON

௡ and

MERCON

௡ V are not interchangeable. DO NOT mix MERCON௡ and

MERCON

௡ V. Refer to your scheduled maintenance information to

determine the correct service interval.

4

Approximate dry capacity, includes cooler and tubes. Fluid level should

be checked by a qualified service technician.

5

Service refill capacity is determined by filling the transmission to the

bottom of the filler hole with the vehicle on a level surface.
