Thanks for the helps guys! That's what I figured but just wanted to make sure.

Yep, just did mine last week, diffs and transfer case. The rear diff is 8mm hex fill and 14mm hex drain.

Howdy! Looking for torque specs for all three components drain and fill plugs. Did you use a torque wrench or go by feel? I’ve found online at Blauparts:

Front diff: fill 25 ft/lbs, drain 25 ft/lbs
Transfer case: fill 15, drain 15
Rear diff: fill 18, drain 44

Have not found any Ram tech data online just what Blauparts say on there website

Used the same spec as listed above when I did mine a month ago in the driveway.

Thank you, did you also apply thread sealant or just clean up the threads and install?

Red RTV on the threads…

Just tightened without additional sealant, good so far.

Used a torque wrench, and RTV on the threads.
