Additional Notes

  • The front differential on the Jeep Comanche MJ (EU) 1987-1992 holds between 1.2 and 1.5 liters of fluid, a capacity range that reflects the fill tolerance of the Dana front axle housing used across both the 2.5i and 4.0i engine variants.
  • The rear differential across all 1987-1992 configurations carries a notably larger capacity of 1.5 to 2 liters, which is consistent with the greater internal volume of a full-size rear axle housing compared to the front unit.
  • Under severe use conditions, both the front and rear differentials on the 2.5i and 4.0i variants share a fluid change interval of 12,000 miles, while no change interval is specified for normal use conditions.
  • The front differential capacity of 1.2-1.5 liters is identical between the 2.5i and 4.0i engine variants for 1987-1992, indicating the same front axle assembly was used regardless of engine displacement.
  • The rear differential in limited slip configuration retains the same 1.5-2 liter capacity as the standard rear differential on both the 2.5i and 4.0i, meaning the limited slip clutch pack does not alter the total fluid volume of the housing.
  • On the 2.5i, the rear differential fitted with the trailer towing package also holds 1.5-2 liters and carries the same 12,000-mile severe-use change interval as the standard and limited slip rear differentials, placing all rear axle configurations on an equal service schedule under demanding conditions.
  • The 4.0i rear differential with the trailer towing package shares the 1.5-2 liter capacity and the 12,000-mile severe-use interval with the standard and limited slip rear differential variants, consistent with the 2.5i towing package specifications.
