Re: Transmission question
Engine would do fine with 10w-40 or 15w-40
Trans depends on what trans it has, there is one that needs 10w-40, the reat will do fine with SAE 50 engine oil
rear axle 80w-90 GL-2 or higher. The Eaton 2 spd are spiral bevel gearing and not hypoid so don't need a heavy EP package in the oil, hence GL-2
This question would be better served in the Loadstar section and not the LRS.
