The services shown in this schedule up to 60,000 miles ( 100 000 km) should
be performed after
60,000 miles (I 00 000 km) at the same intervals.
Footnotes
T The California Air Resources Board has determined that the failure to
perform this maintenance item will not nullify the emission warranty or
limit recall liability prior
to the completion of vehicle useful life. We,
however, urge that all recommended maintenance services be performed at
the indicated intervals and the maintenance be recorded.
*4: Drive axle service:
Locking Differential - Drain fluid and refill at first engine oil change.
At subsequent oil changes, check fluid
level and add fluid as needed. If
driving
in dusty areas or towing a trailer, drain fluid and refill every
15,000 miles (25 000 km).
0 Standard Differential - Check fluid level and add fluid as needed at
every engine oil change. If driving in dusty areas or towing a trailer,
drain fluid and refill every
15,000 miles (25 000 km).
0 More frequent lubrication may be required for heavy-duty or off-road
use.
