Rdu fluid change

[Snox801]

So my truck got 50k on it and that’s a lot of towing, and off road. The rear drive fluid is probably on the harsher side with how much I drive it off road. I’m constantly in the sand dunes, mountains and snow and mud. My rdu works overtime.
Good news is the fluid didn’t look terrible. The usual buildup on the magnet. Glad I changed it but it’s wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Record with redline fluid.

It looks fine actually. When does Ford recommend it be changed?

I’m not sure. Just based on some people’s posts on here i decided better change it to be safe. Especially with how I overwork it compared to most people. Always using the rdu. But I see no problem with it either.

Bought my 22 EB last Feb with 21k miles and in 2 weeks had all the fluids changed including the PTU & RDU. Wanted to see my baseline and saw?a couple posts here that stated it was a good idea for the PTU RDU change
