Having a 12 second Honda is just like coming out of the closet; You're going to surprise a bunch of people, but in the end you're still gay.

Thanks Mark
But I need more Help
The Workshop Manual says:
Gbox: 75w90
Tcase: 75w90 or API GL5 or GL4
Diffs: 80w90 or SAE 80W
Mayfair Gearbox (they redid my Gbox) says:
Gbox 75w90
Tcase 85w140
Trail Gear (suppliers of my low range gears) says:
Tcase : 80/90W GL5 wees
Gearmax (local diff supplier) says
Diffs: 85w140 GL5
Any Help on chosing the correct one?

The Workshop Manual says:
Gbox: 75w90 The owner's handbook says EP SAE 80W-GL4 Transmission oil
Tcase: 75w90 or API GL5 or GL4 You can use the same as the gearbox.
Diffs: 80w90 or SAE 80W The owner's handbook says ISO 460 85W 140 GL5 for rear diff (local G/max) ---- EP 90 GL5 for front diff (import)
Mayfair Gearbox (they redid my Gbox) says:
Gbox 75w90 Same as what the handbook says.
Tcase 85w140 Maybe they feel a diff oil is better .... can't do harm if that's what they used.
Trail Gear (suppliers of my low range gears) says:
Tcase : 80/90W GL5 wees Follow their reccommendation.
Gearmax (local diff supplier) says
Diffs: 85w140 GL5 Same as what the handbook says.

When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

I've just put 85w140 (Shell Spirax) in my front diff. Should I drain it and put in 80w90 (or EP90)?
