Yes, apart from the regular engine oil you need to check the drive shaft gear oil. The final drive takes 4 oz and you can use any hypoid SAE 80 gear oil for this. It does not need a frequent oil change but should never run dry. Depending on driving, change the shaft gear oil perhaps every 20 or 30 thousand miles. It is very easy to change it as there is a fillup hole and a drain bolt.
