    Ive looked all over and cant find anything. I changed my rear diff fluid today and it took about 3-3.5 gallons.

    I cant find anything on the front and rear capacities online? I didnt do the front yet as im headed to the dealer tomorrow morning to get a carrier bearing and im gonna ask them.

    Truck is a 2016 w900 glider....but, KW done everything on it except the engine.

    Anyone know the how much fluid each should hold?
