    Tranny, Transfer, Front & Rear Diff

    I just changed the fluid in my transmission, front, and rear differential.

    Should I flash/reload the file on my truck or leave it as is.

    I wondered if it makes a difference with fresh fluid in a hydraulic system.

    PS: Also, the transfer case got some fresh lube.

    I just did all that myself few weeks ago with upgraded diff covers and deep trans pan w/filter.

    All work very well with no reflash or relearn.

    It always makes me sleep so good @ night and gives me that Warm Fuzzy Feeling all day - when I service the fluids!

    It's even a good feeling hearing about other members doing this as well -

    Especially the Transfer Case - Many Neglect this service.

    I look at fluid changes as alone time with my truck and my three furry friends.

    As I change the fluids in the truck, I add to my belly!

    I see much worse than neglecting the transfer case.

    I did mine while I was underneath the trans filter and pan upgrade.

    I also did the Power Stop Truck & Tow brake kit, both pads, and rotors, while I was at it.

    Well worth the cost and effort.

    The brakes are much better, and I like the look of the drilled and slotted rotors.

    Thanks to all the members who recommended fluid and parts for all this and to the forum vendors that are awesome at what they do.

    Just remember, never use transmission filters off of Amazon.

    They're not the same and will not hold the proper line pressure, causing you to wait for 30 seconds after starting your truck to put it in gear and run hot while in slow traffic.

    OEM, Baldwin, or Napa.
