Title: oil choice
Post by: Dave_EH on October 22, 2004, 05:23:50 AM
G'day,

I know this thread has probably been covered dozens of times... but i just wondered what oil people would choose for the following - all opinions valued!:

3 speed crash box

low milage (16 000), stock, reconditioned red motor

worn banjo diff

just run in "hot" red motor

regards
Dave

I would use 80/90 gear oil for the crash box,
20w-50 SG grade for the low milage red,
Up to 140 grade gear oil for the worn diff,
25w-60 for the 'hot' red.

Regards Seb
