The info. in my notebook says change every 6 months.

I does not list the fluid capacity.

Would like opinion on need for this frequent changing.

Also would like to know the capacity.

Thanks,

The fluid capacity of an R-155 axle is 28 US Pints or 13.2 liters.

According to Rockwell, for 'On-Highway Applications of less than
100,000 miles per year, it should be changed annually. Synthetic
lubricant doesn't have a time interval shown, only every 250,000 miles.

A copy (pdf) of the Rockwell/Meritor Maintenance manual for Single
Reduction Differential Carriers is located in the [Files] section of
the FC_Wanderlodge Yahoo!Group.

Good luck,
