Re: Diff oil

Truck Guy, I'm sure it is the same as for my 2006. From the owners manual "SAE 75W-90 Synthetic Axle Lubricant meeting GM specification 9986115".

Sorry but I don't find the capacity anywhere in the owners manual.

Re: Diff oil

can't remember exactly but I thought it was 1/4" below the fill hole, but on the gm heritage center website, it will show you all this information for future reference.

Rear Axle 8.6" - 2.15 quarts
Rear Axle 9.5" - 2.75 quarts
Rear Axle 9.76" - 3.00 quarts
Rear Axle 10.5" - 2.75 quarts
Rear Axle 11.5" - 3.17 quarts

Here's the link: https://www.gmheritagecenter.com/doc...erado-1500.pdf

Starting at axle ID on page 24 and the Capacities are on page 28
