Service refill capacity is determined by filling the transfer case to the

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

Ensure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. Transmission

fluid requirements are indicated on the dipstick or on the dipstick
handle. Check the container to verify the fluid being added is of the
correct type. Refer to your scheduled maintenance guide to determine
the correct service interval.

Some transmission fluids may be labeled as dual usage, such as
MERCON

௡ and MERCON௡ V. These dual usage fluids are not to be used

in an automatic transmission that requires use of the MERCON

௡ type

fluid. However, these dual usage fluids may be used in transmissions that
require the MERCON

௡ V type fluid.

MERCON

and MERCONV type fluids are not interchangeable.

DO NOT mix MERCON

and MERCONV. Use of a transmission

fluid that indicates dual usage (MERCON

and MERCONV) in

an automatic transmission application requiring MERCON

may

cause transmission damage. Use of any fluid other than the
recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.

Indicates only approximate dry-fill capacity. Some applications may

vary based on cooler size and if equipped with an in-tank cooler. The
amount of transmission fluid and fluid level should be set by the
indication on the dipstick’s normal operating range.

axle assembly has been submerged in water. The axle lubricant should
be changed any time the rear axle has been submerged in water.

Service refill capacity is determined by filling the axle to 6-14 mm

level surface.

equivalent meeting Ford specification EST-M2C118–A, for complete fill of
8.8 inch and 9.75 inch Traction-Lok axles.
