I believe when you drain the pan -- 4 quarts comes out. My memory is I bought a case of 6 quarts and had enough to do the simple fluid drop and same for the transfer case. Nissan D matic.

If you jack the right front corner (on the sub-frame), you can get an additional 1 qt out, since the drain is rear left.

So, instead of draining 4 qts (out of a total capacity of 9 qts), you're draining 5 qts by significantly jacking the front corner. Win !!!
