Rear axle service

[samson_420]

I was looking around and have not seen it yet.

Can I vacuum out the old fluid and replace it that way? Instead of popping the rear cover.

Also what is the most common stuff to run it with and where do I get it? I seen people say different things about what they run.

I would pop the cover so you can also inspect the gears to make sure everything looks good and there are no chunks floating around.
Personaly i use Rp with Gm Additive.

when you take off the cover you can spray the sh!t out of it with brake cleaner to clean it all out. i use amsoil

Amsoil with GM addative, right?

Could use a hand vac pump (what I use to get fluid in) but like the others said, good to remove cover and clean with brake fluid.
