RAM 3500 diff and transfer case oil changes!!!

[@bartthomas2895]

I’ve got a 2022 3500 drw HO, Aisin and my rear differential is a limited slip and yours likely is also. I also am an Amsoil member. The 75w-140 lsd for the rear and the 75w-90 is for the front. The Fass fuel filter system will be one of my next upgrades. Much better water separation performance. Thanks for taking time to capture your work. Much appreciated.

Anytime!!

Those are reusable gaskets on the diffs. I can remove and replace bolts faster than waiting 30 min and changing that container twice. Rear diff isn’t that bad of a mess and I’m pretty sure banks said the stock cover is the next best option to theirs. And never mind…just watched a second video where you sold it. But for everyone else who own one, it’s reusable 😂

My 2012 has 370,000 miles,i have reused my gaskets for 12 years and haven't seen any signs of damage to the gaeskets,i torque the bolts to 25ftlbs.

[@jameskeen8063]

Get you some of that lower radiator hose , the trans. fluid isn't easy. Back of pan is covered by cross member, unbolt the trans mount and jack it up a inch and a half.

No need, there's a few tricks to get those 4 bolts back in.

Hey, I’m new to the channel. Just wanted to say hello and tell you I like what I’ve seen so far. Great job, I look forward to watching some of your old videos.

Thanks so much!

2018 Ram 3500 .. Just did my F/R diffs @ 63k but had it done about 30k already. Dealer pulled covers and resealed so I just took harbor Frt transfer pump and pumped it dry and refilled. Used Ultra1 GL5 old fluid looked clean but time too change out and neither drain plug had any debris stuck to magnet Awaiting Ravenol transfer case fluid and will change that upon arrival. Whole job equaled about 180.00 dealer wants 500.00+.

@@pualsmall5378 definitely the way to DIY! I know people everywhere gotta make money but this 20% inflation since 2021 is just bullshit! Everyone got rich but us

[@Chupamiculo]

Change CCV every 30k miles or sooner. I waited for the scheduled interval and I have a oil pan that’s leaking and also a rear main seal. I currently have 225,000 miles. Docs diesel is cheap price on filters

[@neckofthewoods24]

probably why my catch can is super clean. a new CCV keeps the turbo and everything else clean. i bet at 75k its to much.

[@pualsmall5378]

Changed my CCV 1st time @ 62k..Ram sez 67k but at 62k it was pretty used up. Will change now every 30k its a cheap maint item

[@DavidOakes-p5k]

Those diff seals are reuseable. Two changes so far and no sign of wear

[@neckofthewoods24]

@@DavidOakes-p5k was it pulled after 70,000 miles? That’s my worry. Pull it and it falls apart or is really stuck.

I think Fleetguard makes Mopar filters....

[@neckofthewoods24]

@@chrissnoett3060 yeah not sure. I think they go either way. Would have to see a brand new off the floor truck to know for sure

[@chrissnoett3060]

@neckofthewoods24 Cummins started Fleetguard filters in 1987. Google search says Mopar is a rebadged Fleetguard also says it's made by Purolator.... I don't think you can go wrong with either one.

[@neckofthewoods24]

no me either!

The gasket is reusable.

No need to buy gaskets they’re reusable

[@neckofthewoods24]

@@zGhillie I figure at least once but at 70k I wasn’t gonna risk it.

[@zGhillie]

@@neckofthewoods24 Isn't any risk they're pretty much infinitely reusable as long as you don't stick a screwdriver in there. They're thick plastic not a rubber or cork like the old ones. Hose em down with brake cleaner and they'll be fine. Have had 4 new rams with no issues

[@letsgobrandon7112]

Only a fool would wait to change out their oil by what the book says. Ridiculous!

[@neckofthewoods24]

True!! But I do believe in 3rd party oil analysis so if 15k they say the oil looks amazing then I guess it’s all good. I’ll be doing it soon! I’ll have 8k on it so we’ll see. Just hope the dealer used good oil.
