seem to remember seeing not to use modern GL-5 oil in this transmission, but can't find it now. Can't find GL-4 gear oil here anywhere, mobil recommended tractor hydraulic/ transmission oil. Hydraul 56 or equivalent. Meets GL-4 and Cat TO-2 but probably too thin? What is everybody doing on their graders?
Thanks

50Wt mineral oil is what is run in ours. Same viscosity as 80-90.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
