I have to change the versatrak differential fluid and with having the dash saying awd disabled, do I have to replace the differential oil flow check valve (its expensive) after the new fluid change.

Look in your manual for what type to use we only have a synthetic listing but not for limited slip. Also you should get this scanned for codes because the pump may not be working as to what the problem really is. Do that prior to replacing fluid.
