Basically the same as draining the tranny.


Remove all the bolts except the top corners
Pry the bottom of the cover open so the fluid drains out
Remove the remaining bolts
Clean the cover and the mounting surface on the rear
Use silicone sealer to make a new gasket (read and follow the directions on the tube)
Bolt the cover back in place
Refill


You tube probably has a zillions videos on how to do it............

[RubberCtyRauder]

thru the fill plug on the front side of differential, it's a square drive plug, fill it till it runs out and put plug in, do this on a level surface

What the next class for Auto Mechanics 101?

Whatever happened to trying something yourself?
