How much fluid does the transmission or the diffs take? and how have you guys gone about changing them/ filling them.


and what would you guys use in them?

I dont feel like paying ford 200$ to do my tranny when i can do it myself.

The manual doesnt say how much fluid it takes. So im curious.

Thanks in advance guys.

P.S. If you say use the "search button". Do it yourself and post a thread with the info i need. I cant find one...
 






A complete fill of the transmission, to include converter, cooler, and lines is 12.7 quarts. Use Motorcraft MERCON V Automatic Transmission Fluid XT-5-QM

Rear diff is 1.75 quarts, for my 2004 3.55 open diff my manual says to use SAE 75W-140

Front diff is 1.35 quarts Motorcraft SAE 80W-90 Premium
