Overfilling gearbox oil?
Afternoon,
I have been told that to prolong the life of the stock Uk Gearbox when running high torque (300lbs and over), you can overfill it by about half a litre. Is this true and ok to do??
I was told this by a guy with vastly more mechanical knowledge and experience than me, so I don't doubt that it is true; but I was just wondering what everyone else's opinion is on this??
Cheers
