5 quarts and 2 bottles of friction modifier. The gear oil ain't cheap though. $20 a bottle.

E locker does not require friction modifier only the limmeted slip axle

So guess they havent all been like that for 20 years.. ********.. I just would like to get some amsoil in there and get the factory oil and break in shavings out. Also looking at Mag-hytec diff covers i guess.
Seeing as how you posted on a FORD forum and were asking about a FORD, not all that other crap you've owned....the FORD'S have been like that for at least the last 20 years....you shouldn't go getting your panties in a bunch because somebody answered a questioned you posted....another thing, before you go calling names, I'd be sure you know who you're talking to.

I really could care less who you are, or who you think you are. Your just a dude on a truck forum trying to be a smart ***. Do you impress yourself with the said implications like your someone special and we should all fear you? HA get a life go troll on some other thread I'm just interested in learning about my new truck.

Wow. Settle down. You ask a stupid question you get a stupid answer. The math is pretty simple. Lack of drain plug = sealed. It's not a new thing. I have seen plenty of all brands like this dodge, Chevy, ford, and so on. So no sense getting your sh*t in a knot and throwing comments like that around. You won't be welcome very long. Good thing you clarified your age though- 21... Wow. I was beginning to doubt your valuable life experience.

Thats what i thought! My jeeps with lockers never required friction modifiers, so it got me thinking. Some oils have friction modifiers included, I dont believe amsoil does.

If you only knew the things I've accomplished and experienced by 21. I'm 21 and ive bought 100k in vehicles. Traveled 8 countries. Own and operate my own business. I'd say I'm doing just fine for being 21.

Here we go, another person who likes to talk ***** with their keyboard....I'm happy for you that you've owned over 100k in vehicles and own your own business and whatever else you've done. I'm giving you some advice for daily use in life JR....with the attitude you have coming on a public forum blasting away names at people you don't even know, it'll get you no where fast in life. Calm down and listen once in awhile instead of blasting off at the mouth because you think somebody was being a smart***** or disrespected you. You might find people are willing to give you the info and advice you're looking for if you LISTEN to what they're saying, instead of reading into the statement thinking somebody's being a smart*****. Believe it or not I might have some quality info for you seeing as how I worked for Ford for 8 years and now work in Research and Development for all auto manufactures, developing new technologies and solving problems that arise.

Big f'n deal. No matter what you think you've accomplished, you're still acting like a 4 year old. your "accomplishments" are likely no different or better than a great number of people on here- get over yourself.

For the record, talk to me when you've owned your own business successfully for 15 years. Then we'll talk... Kid.

On that note, I'm done.

And to think I got banned over on another forum for simply telling a moderator he was wrong about another person and I was just sticking up for the other person who *was wrongly banned. And of course, it was the same moderator.

This is a really good forum, but, slinging names around like a 6-year old in a temper tantrum doesn't accomplish anything. And responding to such immaturity only makes things worse. Lets start over and everyone try and be nice. Hurting others' feelings is something we should ALL try and avoid. It makes us a better person in a life that's already filled with way too much anger.
