hi every one, can some one please help me what oil should be in a Lt77 gear box on a 1984 90.
some places say atf and some say land don't recommend it any more and you should use mtf or some thing( not 100% sure what oil)

i know the t-box should me ep90 ( is that right?)

so what should i use?
look forward to your comments
kind regards

Hi, You're bang on with EP90 for the transfer box, main box uses ATF such as Dextron 2 spec. If you use anything thicker the gearchange will be stiff when cold & the oil pump does'nt like it. :)

smith335:
Thanks for the reply, i will get some atf.

does it have to be dextron 2 or can i use a higher spec like dextron 3? or is it not worth it?

cheers

ChrisV8:
Best oil for them is Difflock stuff, I have it in both LT77s in the 90 and the RR makes the gearchange so much better.

It's not the cheapest though

maggers:
Dextron 2 should be fine unless your're feeling flush! ;)
