It doesn’t take much to notice that your driveshaft runs from the front to the back of your car, and your axles run side to side. It’s pretty simple: Your engine turns your transmission, which turns your driveshaft, which turns the rear end, which turns the axles, which turn the rear wheels. Changing the fluid is incredibly easy and you really don’t need to have an engineering understanding of the pixie dust inside the rear end. It wouldn’t hurt to make sure you have good fluids in your rear diff just like you would engine oil. And at the track, and in empty parking lots, and anywhere there is pavement. All you HEMI ® engine-powered vehicle owners out here, I know EXACTLY how bad you beat the heck out of your cars.
Rear diff manual#
You may notice your SRT Hellcat owner’s manual may not say much about scheduled maintenance. But it might be smart to stay on top of your maintenance and tune-ups to keep things performing their best for the entirety of your vehicle’s existence. The ZF rear ends in Dodge Brand vehicles are strong as an ox and require very little upkeep over their lifespan. Most rear-wheel-drive (RWD) performance cars these days feature a limited slip differential. How many factory transmissions and rear ends are out there taking over 1,000 horsepower straight to the guts and standing strong? I’ll wait while you think about it. Especially on the SRT ® Hellcat versions. Right around 2015, Dodge switched from using the old made-over Mercedes Nag1 5-speed automatic trans and Getrag rear differentials and put in the beautiful ZF 8-speed transmission and matching ZF rear differential.
