Gearbox oil

[m7gsr]

How much gear oil in an 8 MR?

 

[B6lee]

2.7 litres I think. 4 litres if doing transfer as well. 5 litres and youll have enough to do the rear diff also.

 

[m7gsr]

Thanks Lee. I'll be doing all the fluids on it.

Would you recomment 5 litres of...
Millers Oils EP 75w-80 GL5 GEAR OIL
or am I better off with 5 litres of...
Silkolene BOA 90 LS High Performance Gear And Limited Slip Differential Oil

Cheers

 

[B6lee]

You can get this oil from LK Performance in Cleckheaton just down the road from you and same price. You will have enough with 5 litres to do the gearbox, transfer box and rear diff and still have a bit left over.

+1 and they are cheap for 5 litres of it in LK Performance. Tell them you are from Speed Freaks in Castleford and were there last week getting oil, brake pads and additives

Will do, cheers

Going to go and get the oil. Which one do I get?
Millers Oils CRX 75w-90
or
Millers Oils CRX LS Synth 75w-90

 

[m7gsr]

The difference I can see is the LS in one and the price! Maybe more to them than just that?

 

[Phil74]

Millers Oils CRX 75w-90 This is fine but buy in 5 litres and a lot cheaper. I use this or redline shock proof but its £18 a litre and can be bought in 5 litres. Lucas do a very good 75/90 fully syn with stabiliser added for £10 a litre and its very good but hard to get a stockist for it.
