2005 jeep liberty 4wd 3.7l how to change diff.oil
there is 2 different ways to change the fluid this is a drain plug on the front of the rear diff or you can take the back of the pumpkin off on the rear diff.
yes the tranny oil and diff oil are seperate, typically there is a drain plug and a fill plug located on the diff usually a 3/4" combo wrench will do the trick

Remove the diff cover.
There is a hole in the front diff guard, thats where you add it (remove the nut). On the left side of the diff there is another nut remove it to drain before adding.
You have to remove the diff cover, then replace with new gasket and refill thru plug.
Your best all around diff. fluid is 90w-140 synthetic gear oil. Seems to work great in cold and hot temps
Place a drain pan under the differential. Loosen the bolts, but don't take the diff cover completely off. Let the fluid drain into the drain pan. When it stops draining, take the diff cover off. Siphon out the remaining fluid from the bottom of the diff. Scrape off the remaining gasket. Place the new gasket on, with some RTV. Put the diff cover back on and tighten it. Remove the fill plug. Fill to the bottom of the fill plug. Replace the fill plug.
you need to pull your rear pumpkin(diff cover) and let the fluid drain out. When its done draining you need put your cover back on and either get a new seal or just use some silicone. unscrew the plug and fill it with diff fluid
