I was just wondering what some of your thoughts are on servicing other drive train parts (trans fluid, rear end fluid)??? I'm not even sure what the regular maintenance schedule is? But because i tow a 7500lb travel trailer all summer long i just want to know if anyone does or would service much sooner than what they recommend ?? Any help will be appreciated!!

Transexual and Differential fluid should be changed every 30k.........

Hahaha! Damn auto correct

Are you serious? Change the transmission and differential fluids every 30k?

Even with regular towing, I wouldn't change either of those until 100k miles, unless you're experiencing issues already. 30k miles is extreme overkill.

Manual says every 150K miles unless towing, then it only mentions the transfer case fluid (every 60K miles) !?!?!

As required Change engine oil and filter as indicated by message center and perform services listed in Normal Scheduled Maintenance chart

Myself, I'll probably change the transmission fluid, diff fluids, AND the transfer case at 60K . ( I also pull a camper quite often. )

Isnt it quicker to Google some of this stuff, instead of waiting on the replies of people?
