Diffs

Post by jacksonpinz »

I noticed that there are two fill plugs on the Pinz Diff. One is toward the front a little under halfway up. The second is on the rear and a little over half way up. Which one do you fill the diffs from? Same with the tranny. One fill plug on top flush with the tranny under the plate in the rear. Other one is off to the side with a short tube. Thanks

All of that info is in your service manual as well as in the archives within this site :shock:

Don't have the manuals. Ordered them 2 weeks ago from Cold War Remaketing and they have not come. Everything I order from SAV is here in 2-3 days. Has anyone else had trouble with Cold War? Everytime I call to see where the order is I get a message and then it says you can not leave messages. I won't order from them again.

On the diffs, pull both plugs and fill from top hole till it runs out of the lower hole(around 2 liters 80-90wt).
Same for the trans, fill through the top plug hole till it runs out the lower hole(GL-4 only or Redline MT90)

Jacksonpinz....I too have ordered a part from Coldwar and have not received it yet, 3+ weeks. I have emailed them and called on several occasions. I have not had this problem with Coldwar in the past, and don't know what the problem is.

Update: I just got a email from Patrick at Coldwar and he says my part is on the way, They have been having troubles with their Voice mail.

Got an e-mail back after I e-mailed them today. Hopefully will be here soon.

Hi Guys,

Also, as for oiling up the "gearbox", Dennis over at LinDen just had some posts about that as well.

A little off topic: Never had problems with Cold War before.
Best Regards,
Charles
