how do you put fluid in the front.

 

What year and model do you have?

 

2001 f150 4x4 supercrew

 

i am trying to use a small hose. 4 ft. long to reach the differential.

 

Are you trying to change the fluid or add? I have a 2005 STX and there is a fill plug on the rear driver side of the housing above the axle. Is it leaking? Usually you only remove the fill plug if you are draining and refilling it, because once you remove the fill plug fluid starts to drain out.

 

im changing the fluid but you cant get the bottle to the hole.

 

Yea I just did mine last weekend, pain in the ****. Is your fill plug on the driver side rear of the housing? If so what I did was I had a straight rigid funnel. I cut the neck to about 3 to 4 inches and attached a 4 to 5" piece of flex tubing to it. Then I inserted the flex tubing into the fill hole brought it straight up toward the driver side. I had to fenangle the quart up in between the frame and the underside of the body and was able to fill it that way. Like i said pain in the ****. took me a half hour to fill it.

 

just get a fluid pump and a vehicle lift then you'll be golden haha thats what i do

 

got it took about an hour.
