Cool thanks Kris. I havent ever really looked hard at gearbox oils, is
there a particular weight that I should be using in the mix, and are
there different grades of auto fluid (having never owned an auto)? Also
have any of you ever tried any of the additives that are meant to be
good for worn gearboxes, like the ones with teflon and all that crap in
them? My only experience is with engine oil additives, and I am of the
opinion that most of them dont do much at all?
