I wanna replace the diff oils in my stockman I bought recently, as not sure when it may have been done last.

Just wanted to know what oil anyone can recommend, I have a couple of bottles of Penrite Limslip 85W-140 which I use on the Pootrol, would that be the go using that, or to heavy duty?

Also curious to know how often the oil should be changed.

too heavy duty

I think LS90 is the go but I'm sure other will confirm.

On a patrol maybe. On a sierra its like driving with the hadbrake on

it has a little drag not that noticible i didnt think,
got a mate(drives a sierra) that runs the same thickness in his, he was snatching out a lux 4 runner out of a bog, and had all fours in motion the hold time and i go through mudd and clay and stuff all fours spin..
only at pace through.. other wise you have to clutch kick

don't use anything above 90w.
