Hiya all

I need to change the gearbox and differential oils. Firstly from what I understand the gearbox and front differential are the same unit so changing the gearbox oil does the front diff, is that right?

I need 75W/90 spec oil for gearbox and 80W/90 for rear diff.

What type/make oil should I be using? Recommendations please!

Also engine oil, 10W/40, what make is recommended?

Thanks in adv of help

I woudl recommend looking on 22b.com in the engine forum.

there has been a big discussion on this recently, with some very helpful comments from people who seem to know their stuff.
