There is a drain and fill bolt on the transfer case. The illustration should be in your owners manual. Be sure to remove filler bolt first to insure you can refill it. Drain, replace drain bolt with a NEW crush washer, refill with gear oil until it runs out of fill hole, then replace filler bolt with a NEW crush washer. I use mobil1 or royal purple gear fluid. A long wrachet is the only tool needed. The washer sizes are 20mm for drain and 24mm for the fill. Bolts are super tight, so be prepared. Good luck.

also to make access easier to get to the filler bolt, remove your intake tract from the throttle body. You can even remove the battery so you have a lot of space.. and if you have a difficult time removing the filler bolt you can also fill through the dipstick tube.
