Differential oil level SP36
Just completed a lube job on my 90 SP36 and noted only one place
on the differential having what looked like an inspection plug. It appears to be a slotted end shaft with a locknut on it. Is this where the oil level is checked? If so, what should the level be and is there any guidelines for how far the slotted shaft should be screwed back in? Chuck Harrison 90 SP36 Akron, Ohio |

That's the pinion gear preload. It wouldn't be good to disturb
that setting. The road side of the carrier should have a 1/2" npt plug a little below the pinion center line, your lube should be with in 1/2 inch of that opening, coach sitting on a level surface.
