it is really simple..

Now to find time to do it between waking up at 5am every morning, working until 5:30pm every day, coming home and prepping a quick dinner followed by working another 2 hours and getting the fluids done while I still have light outside.

Guess what I did this weekend? Worked. Why do you think I am sooooo excited for a new job possibility coming up. hahaha. I really can't wait to stop working 80+ hour weeks.

Not trying to be mean or sarcastic. But man, it's tough doing any kind of real work (car related or not) when you're just beat to begin with.

I feel ya...

I would say this though.. if you got literally 20 minutes (10min for each) you could do it.. but if you're busy, you're busy. I get it.

The oil change I did this past weekend should have taken 20 minutes. I've done that countless times before. It ended up being an hour long ordeal. Doing trans and diff (just to be safe and take things slow) would take an hour or 2.

The car will survive without a fluid flush. 28k miles and not driven overly hard. I'm not to concerned. It'll get done at some point this season.

dude, no need to apologize... we all have them, im mostly troll'n you anyways.. when you get here, I'll show you how to do it, if you pick up 2 fluid pumps (1 for each, and 2 different fluids), we'll knock it out..

JARblue · 05-08-2018, 09:23 AM

I use the same pump. I just make sure to run some denatured alcohol through it between fluids.

They're both gear oil ... probably wouldn't hurt anything if a little was mixed.

eastwest2300 · 05-08-2018, 09:27 AM

yeah, I gotta get some of that denatured alcohol..

Leingod · 05-08-2018, 09:43 AM

Recommendations on oils?

3 qts of redline mt-85 for trans?
2 qts of mobile 1 75w-90 for diff?

I'll be cutting delivery time close, so i'll just go through amazon even though it's a few dollars more compared to Z1. I also got 2 basic pumps from Amazon in my cart.

eastwest2300 · 05-08-2018, 09:46 AM

no recommendations here, I used mobil 1 in the transmission, and I've got motul in the new differential.
