Steps and Tools Needed to Drain and Refill the Front Differential Fluid (to be performed after warm-up):
1- Remove the differential skid pan/plate to access the fill/drain plugs.
2- Remove the fill and drain plugs with a 3/8" break-away bar or socket wrench. Remove fill plug first to allow air to enter gear case before draining.
3- Reinstall Drain Plug after used fluid stops draining (reseal plug with red RTV high temperature sealant).
4-Fill differential with a Coastal Pump and with 75-90W synthetic differential fluid.
5- Install Fill plug ( reseal plug with red RTV high temperature sealant) after refilling the differential with new fluid.
6- Inspect side shaft seals for signs of leakage.

I changed my 4x4 05 Titan's FRONT differential fluid over the weekend.
The 05 manual that came with my Titan has no fluid volume listings for the front or rear differentials?
I changed the fluid sitting on level ground. It took 58 ozs. sitting level.... which I calculate to be 3.625 pts. or 1.8125 qts.
To my surprise I noticed the OEM fluid looked very good, not too dark and not a single speck of metal was in it or on the magnetic drain plug....just a little "break-in silver" gear seating grease on the plug. The top fill plug is the same size and is magnetic also.
I also use a small micron mesh screen to dump/filter it thru and couldn't find a speck of metal!! <img src='http://www.titanspot.com/Titan/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/003.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':smt003' />
Amsoil gear oil containers don't have a convenient fill-spout on them so I used a Coastal Pump to do the filling.
The Coastal hand pump screws directly on the oil bottle.
