Done. Although I didn't use as much oil as they did. The front was pretty clean but man, the back was certainly overdue. Thanks for posting that. I don't see much from the iPhone app and it's my only computer.

your owners manual will tell you what service to do and when. That'll help you keep track of what minimal maintenance you should be doing.

ANyone have the specs for what size adn what the heck kind of tool you need for the "big Square" plug..I think the outer Diff cover bolts are 1/2 inch? Have them soaking with some wd40 right now and realized I don't have a square tool to get the plug out.
thanks for your comments/help
