[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matthew Milkevitch
What type of gear oil are we supposed to use in the diff and trans of
our Spits? I've heard that GL 4 is the way to go, however I can't seem to
find it at any of my
GL-4 is available at some NAPA stores...some, not all.
It pays to call around before jumping in your car.
They carry Sta-Lube. Some carry the quart containers
some carry the Gallon Jugs...some both. I
personally bought all that they had when I found it.
Cheers,

GL5 eats away the copper and brass parts. From what I hear, it's more of a
problem with the diff, you can *probably* get away with it in the
transmission
(unless you have overdrive).
But why risk it? I was able to find GL4 on the shelf at our local NAPA
store. At
the very least, they can

Per Penrite's Lubrication Recommendation Sheet for Spits, GT6, Herald,
Vitesse Bond
The Rear ends should be using Hypoid 80W/90. Not straight gear oil.
Please advise if you would like a Penrite brochure packet with your mailing
address and I will include the above mentioned sheet.
