    Matt, how much does a fluid extractor cost? If I used one does the fluid have to be cold when extracting?

    This is the one I use (just under $100): http://www.amazon.com/Mityvac-7201-F...luid+evacuator

    There's a cheaper version that doesn't have the reverse flow valve that runs around $60-70.

    Due to the mileage when you purchased your Jeep, Im willing to bet that the trans service was never done. If I recall correctly the 1st trans service is right at 75,000 miles. So if it were me, I would definitely do the filter/fluid swap soon.

    so its been 30k and i havent drained and refilled her in that time. i see the manual says 30k for the tranny/tcase and such. i just had all them done at 90k, so i take it i need to address them all at 120k? or you think they can go 50k? i was thinking if anything drain and fill the tranny.

    shes just been daily driven, nothing crazy.

    The trans is every 60k for the severe duty schedule in my manual.

    Tcase is every 30k.... and easy enough to do so I wouldn't stretch that one longer than necessary.

    Diffs every 30k too. I dont recall if that was QDII specific because of the clutches though.... QT is just an open carrier so 30k seems a bit excessive.
