1/4 to 1/2 quart???? If you pull it out slowly and STRAIGHT, a few drops. Ditto for putting it back in, slow, steady and STRAIGHT. If you bugger up the tailshaft seal she’ll be pissing ATF everywhere! Just be careful and you’ll be fine. Regards, Doc

Not sure of your txfr case capacity, but my np241 is 2 quarts. And yes, top it off.

Sorry for posting the same question in two chevy groups, I realized after posting that my question had a better home here… Question: How much transfer case fluid can I expect to loose when removing the rear driveshaft on a 94 GMC with automatic transmission 4X4(4 speed electronic, sorry don’t know the model)? The shaft being removed with the truck being relatively level (four wheels on the ground).
Response:
Some where around 1/4-1/2 quart. Typically the fluid doesnt fill past the lower half of the output bearings. It would be good to jack the rear up somewhat. Cheers
