Rear Axle Preparation






REAR AXLE PREPARATION

For short term storage refer to Owner's Manual.

On a vehicle that is to be stored for 90 days or longer the following procedures are recommended to minimize environmental effects on mechanical components and painted or upholstered surfaces.

Turn rear wheel spindles several rotations once a month to circulate fluid through the differential. Circulating the differential fluid prevents corrosion from forming on components that are above the fluid level.
