[08rap]

Quick question.............. I've been searchimg on here for finding the quanity of fluid for the tanny but no avail. How much oil will it take and what oils do you guys use . Mine is a 2002 f250 living in northeren indiana .

4R100 or ZF6?

im thinking its a 4r .......its the automatic sorry i didnt put that in the orininal post lol

According to the Haynes manual, with the torque converter drained, it is 17.7 quarts.

If I were you I would use Motorcraft or a high end auto transmission fluid.

Good luck.

thanks for the heads up!!


these stock hub lockers are a sob....right hub wont turn and i cant get it off ......took the snap ring off and tapped on it all around and it wont budge even ater about an hour of soaking it with blaster

The hub should just slide out if you removed the big outer snap/lock ring.

If they are sticky, I thread a couple of the screws back in (that held the cover on) and use those to get a good hold on them.

these are the stockers i dont think they have ever been off .........still couldnt get the right side off after soaking it all day

To totally change the tranny fluid, you're going to want to buy like 22-24 quarts.


To just drop the plug on the pan and drain that, you'll want 8 quarts.
