Jason,
I really dont think the tcase and tranny share fluid, even though both
require ATF+3 7176. I mean think about it, when draining the tcase fluid,
does more fluid than what the tcase holds come out? When servicing the fluid
in your tranny, do you also have to check the fluid level in your tcase when
filling the tranny back up?.......of course not. Even though the tcase is
bolted up to the tranny, I really dont think they share fluids. I would just
go ahead and to your tcase fluid swap and not worry about it.
