Best oils to use for transfer box and gearbox

[Mintie]

So in taking the gear box out to replace the clutch I pulled the front prop shaft out and lost all my transfer box oil . What is best to use to replace it and how much does it take? While I'm at it I'll do the gearbox oil too so looking for opinions on what's best to use and how much it takes too?

Cheers

Gear oil. If it's got bronze or other yellow metals in the synchro rings etc then stay away from GL5 rated oils.

I would suggest you use 75w-90 gear oil for the T case and G box. works the best. you dont want to be using to thicker viscosity oil or you will find it hard getting gears.

Sorted. Thanks for the advice guys. Got 5L of Penright 75w90, should be enough to do diff too and have it all done.

Awesome. i wouldnt recommendb75w-90 for the diffs as they arnt thick enough and ypu will create alot of friction and heat in them. go for 80-90 in the diffs. Safer and better
