hi to all im new on here and new to jimnys i brought one last week and thought i better change the oil in the axles and transfer box i dont have a manual could any one tell me
wot oil to use
cheers paul
Any API GL-4 SAE 75W-90 standard oil for the gearbox
Any API GL-5 Hypoid Gear Oil for the Differentials.
Personally I get through so much of the stuff I use the generic "Gear Oil" in large containers from my Motor Factor.
Mine does such low mileage (probably around 1000 miles a year) yet has the front and rear diff oils changed twice a year (water contamination from duff bearings etc.) I think the oil is hardly in to long enough to make a difference.
