Gear oil question. kinda dumb
« on: Mar 10, 2010, 04:30:18 PM »
i was given a case (12 quarts) of redline 75-85w gear oil i was wondering if you guys think i might have any problems running that in  my tranny/tcase and my diffs. I just dont know if its a whole lot thinner than 75-90 or if its fine. then i was told you should run mt-90 in the tranny, but it seems like this stuff would be alright? Please correct me if im wrong.  thanks

i have been running atf. in my 5 speed for years now.  and there has been nothing wrong with it so far.
and if you no atf.  then you no it's thin stuff.   as far as t/cases i would stick with gear oil same with the diffs.
i love oregon wheelin.
