Rear Diff and Transfer Case Fluid Change: tools parts and links
And you can order some oil chang kits and engine / cabin air filters to make the order amount over $100 to waive the expensive shipping at our sponsor Med Center. Or you can try Amazon as the OP CX5-SO suggested:
You need more than 1 quart gear lubricant to replace both front transfer case and rear differential. The manual says both front and rear need 0.48 quarts, but in reality the rear needs about ⅔ quarts!$39 shipped for 1 qt. Ouch.
Mine is same as 2013. Correct. I needed more than one quart to change both. Front was seemingly spot on... rear needed more than half quart. Unfortunately I didn't measure. I don't think 3/4 quart but it seemed around or shy of 2/3 quart was what it took.
EDIT: Vehicle was cold and level.
