(1/2) > >>

baz2236:
What grade oil do i put in it, is it just gearbox oil. Also how much goes into a 410 transfer box

markyb:
fill to the fill plug on most boxes, i use what ever i can get cheap.

ie EP90. at the moment im using 75-80 i think it is gear oil

fudge:

marjan:
EP90 is the specified oil in all the manuals.

rollazuki:
If its a box you want to look after, ie a low ratio gearset, or similar, Id go for a synthetic gear oil.

The centre shaft in the transfer box has a really crappy oil feed to the bearings, and can wear quickly if a poor quality oil is used. In the ten or so transfer boxes ive stripped, the wear on the centre bearing pin has been severe.

I use a synthetic gear oil, and a mopar low friction additive, in the vague hope that it helps.

other than that, Id go for a 75 weight oil, try to avoid 90, its like treacle on a cold day.
