As we know, I am a big proponent of changing fluids. Changed the transfer case lube today since I hit 90k this week. I change it every 30k. Today I put in Redline D4 ATF instead of the usual Mobil 1 ATF since I had some left from the gallon I bought to fill the new tranny in my son's Mustang (long story, 3rd tranny in 3 years, at least this one was on warranty).
I've owned a few Rangers and two Sport Tracs, t-case lube always came out the first time at 30k looking like tar. Until now I never changed more than once because I didn't keep them that long. At 60k the lube still looked a little pink, today it drained out looking practically like new except for the metallic bits. Possibly the early wear is greater and it slows down after a while. I dunno. Just thought I'd report.
