#1 Stock drivetrain fluid suggestions.
Aegis Posted on: 2010/4/28 0:03
Hey guys, I've just finished an engine swap and in the process I dropped all the trans fluid. I checked my workshop manual And couldn't find the fluid specifactions.

What gearbox oil have people used with a 56A 4spd? Also what diff oil for a standard sedan diff?

Cheers
Tom.

Gearbox needs GL-4 gear lube.

In the diff you can use the more common GL-5 stuff. 80W-90 will do.

I am using Redline MT90 in both the diff and tranny.

Just make sure it is GL-4 so that it protects the older style synchros, which diffs don't need to worry about.

The specification: API GL-4MIL-L-2105

75W-90 is great.

Examples:
CHEVRON Multiservice Gear Lub. 75,80,90,140
ESSO Gear Oil GP80,90,140
MOBIL Mobilube EP or GX80-90, 90, 140
SHELL Spirax 75EP,80EP, 90EP, 140EP
SUNOCO Multipurpose GearLub. GL-480,90,140
TEXACO Universal Gear Lub.EP80,90,140
