Rear motor replacement pic

[Rlevans]

Thought I’d post a pic of rear motor out of the truck. I couldn’t find any posts of this having been done before.
Rear motor is being replaced in attempt to fix my 1 pedal drive fault.

Apparently the module in question doesn’t come separate and the entire assembly gets replaced.

What we have oil filters….the nerve

Right? How dare they!! Thx for pic, good luck

Nobody has invented dry differentials or dry reduction gears yet?

There is also an oil pump and oil pan with a filter screen and magnet:

Is there a service interval for changing the fluid and filter?

Darn a whole new motor and all the components nice! How many miles?

I might have to pull up some service info to see. My guess is probably 100k or later. Also rest assured I’ll be doing mine much sooner like maybe 50-60k.

150K or 10 years for the fluid, but they don't discuss the filters (2) one on each motor unit.

If I recall: someone said oil service around 200K

Truck has just over 18K

Copy that. Yeah no way I’d wait that long. I like to be ahead of the game on maintenance. A filter and some trans fluid are not that expensive. I still need to look up how to service. I’m assuming probably just drop the metal shield and there is probably a drain plug.

No it's more involved, you need to remove shield, remove side fill plug, remove 10 fasteners holding the oil pan, drop oil via loosened pan into catch basin, inspect & clean reinstall or replace internal screen, clean mounting surfaces of old RTV sealant, mount pan with new RTV & fasteners and torque to 97 inch/lb, fill motor via side plug until level with plug opening, return plug to fill hole torque to 30 ft/lb

NOTE the procedure guide doesn't combine the oil change & filter change as a contiguous list of steps, but if I were to change the filters, I'd do it before the final fill, you should also reinspect the fluid level after running the motors for a few minutes once the new filter has been primed .
