Just wondering what people use for diff oil and transfer case oil. Is it standard for all models?
I have 105 series and just want to be sure I'm using the correct viscosity for front and rear diffs.
I think I should be ok for 80W-90 in the diffs and 75W-90 for transfer.
What does it mean with the temperature recommendations? They are weird. I take it below -18 is for snow areas, rarely (if ever) gets to 0 celcius where I live.
Page from the online downloadable Owners Manual /Specifications (not my cars).
Going to try and freshen up the lot of this with new oil / grease. Is it better to install new zerks to avoid injecting sand/contaminants ?
Going to use these:
Purchased the grease already , since the previous owner used Auto MAsters who use only Valvoline products (lubrication/oil)
Is there a synthetic or semi-synthetic option for 100 series diff oils ?
Advice would be much appreciated. Cheers.
