its not cheap and you need a sludge gun to get the shit in its almost as thick as grease

Re: PTO winch oil
Its cheaper to buy direct from Elf in Manukau... Cash sale...
And its a 5L container and you only use about 1 1/2 cup fulls.
But I see you are in Nelson.... So there goes that idea...

Re: PTO winch oil
A gear oil that doesn't have EP in it, we've used all sorts and EP limits the winch life to about zero.
