SERVICE NOTES: The axle oil does not require chang- ing unless it has been contaminated. To change the oil, drain the main axle cavity and the two lower spindle cavi- ties by removing the drain plugs. When filling the axle after a complete draining it is necessary to fill the lower spindle cavities through their fill holes as well as the main cavity. After the initial filling the oil level of all three cavities can be checked at the dip stick (A) as oil will seep from the main cavity to the lower ones.
