I'm picking up my jeep tomorrow from getting it regeared. I've read not to let the gears over heat, and to stop to let them cool down after the first 20 minutes or so. The shop is supposed to take it out on a test drive before i pick it up, but I still have about an hour drive back home. It is around 50 miles.
My question is, on the way home should I stop for a half hour or so to let the gears cool down, or just drive all the way home? Then I know to change the fluid around 500 miles. I have an ARB f/r in a 30 and a toy 8.4. Can I use the same weight(what weight?) in both axles, and should I use synthetic with the ARBs? Finally, for the 500 mile duration, should all of my time driving be under the 20 minutes, or can i increase my drive times?
thanks
