Jeep Cherokee XJ Diff Fluid Change

[@jameslehman85]

Cool video, great job, I liked when you got three arms ! Always nice to have help sometimes !

[@KCars]

It definitely helps, thanks for watching!

[@ethanolfree28]

Even an orbital sander would do ya some good. Scorch brite pad on an air die grinder would be *chefs kiss*

[@KCars]

True that would help, thanks!

great vid man!

Doing this on my 1996 Jeep Cherokee automatic transmission. Owners Manuel called for 2.5 QT 80w90 for rear diff.

💯👌

[@daron368]

@@KCars Honestly a super simple process, hardest part was getting the bolts off from whoever tightened them last lol

[@KCars]

Very true

[@nedtheproducer5777]

Same process for a Manual XJ?

[@KCars]

I would assume so

[@jimdailey1985]

Why did you use STP?

[@KCars]

No specific reason, it was just what advance auto had

[@NickB2Blessed]

Have u done the same thing for your Challenger?

[@KCars]

No I haven’t

[@edtorgersen1454]

As a professional mechanic, I highly disagree with spaying brake clean into the diff. But good job. A scraper would've saved the day.

[@KCars]

Thanks!

[@noehctuccmliw]

Pro mechanic log took the words from my mind. I've seen a fair few videos with guys using brake cleaner. Yes it cleans thoroughly but then you end up with residual brake cleaner in your new (75)80/90 gear lube etc.

Milwaukee angle grinder would make it easy

[@KCars]

🤷🏼‍♂️

[@SlotsR-Us]

Thanks man

[@KCars]

Thanks for watching!

[@jimmyjack35]

Why not add a drain plug. Both axels. Lol

[@chestrockwell7023]

You can use transmission fluid

[@KCars]

Transmission fluid is lighter in viscosity than diff fluid so it should not be used but it’s possible if you’re in an emergency and it’s all you have
