BTR diff capacity.

[phazed]

I am filling my differential with oil,( that's a good start) while it is on the bench and level and it seems to take about 1.3–4 L of oil.

Had a quick browse on the net and some people say that it takes 1.6 L from empty.

I did drain all the all out that I could. Tipping up the differential but still cannot squeeze 1.6 L in.

I take it that it is full when it starts running out of the filler plug.

That's how I used to fill the BTR on the Cerb.

From memory I'm pretty sure 1.4 litres is about right, however, and as already advised just use the filler as a level (with the diff level on the bench.

P.S. Hope all is well with you & yours. Talking about diffs, might need to change mine out at the end of this season. If only I had a post lift!!!!!!!!

You are more than welcome to use mine Richard.

I will also have my 45k mile diff available at a sensible price..........

When I’d done around 500 miles on the oil we put in my new dif Peter I changed it out, oil hot, drained for a good 1/2 hr
I seem to think it took about 1.4 possibly 1.5 max to re fill.

Very kind of you Peter, I might well take you up on that!!

I've already got Alan's old one, I could start a collection I suppose & have a range of ratios!
