its certainly lifetime sitting in a corner of my garage having been removed lol. that also affords me the ability to disregard any of that front/rear tire size quandary relative to the awd system.

Yes, the front diff fluid can be changed. I thought that was clear in my post. I never intended to say otherwise.

The viscous coupling fluid isn't accessible AFAIK.

The info is mainly for the owners who have not opted to remove the front diff. While that is of course your choice some of us like the car the way it came from the factory and would like to keep the car, including the front diff/viscous coupling in good working order.
