I have done it before by just squeezing the bottle with a small hose on the tip that goes into the diff, but that really sucked and took forever and i won't do that again.

You cut a hole in the bottom of the bottle to let air in.

i have the wrench and the socket. and I just squeezed the bottle attached to a plastic tube. You only put like 1/2 a bottle into there anyway so u don't need to sqeeze that much. i tried putting more in there and it all just came out the fill hole so I knew i put in enough.

well in doing it yesterday i used a different way to do it other than squeezing the bottle...i just used a 5 dollar siphon and tube and stuck one end in the bootle and the other in the diff got a cup of lemonade and watched physics at work...

My arm was tired from squeezing the bottle so much... that sucked. Next time, I'll definitely buy a pump. I would advise anyone that plans to do this to buy the pump before hand.
