Need to buy some good gearbox oil today

[Robo]

Hi there,

Need to pick up some good gear box oil today.

From reading the post's everyone says good things about Redline lightweight oil, anybody know where I can get some today?

I work in North Ryde so anywhere close to that.

Cheers

Rob

I've found some oil called Motul synthetic gear box oil...

Anyone heard of this, it's about $120 for 4 ltrs...

Try doing a search as this issue has been discussed many times, especially on SDU.

The only oil recomended by the manufacturer is castrol VMX 80. It's cheap too, about $25 for 4 litres. I used it my gbox and it solved some crunching problems with 2nd gear, I recomend it..

does any 1 know a easyer way of removing the drain bolt for the gearbox oil??? ive been trying for ages with a socket but it wont buge. i even tryed using a long metal pole over the wrench for extra leverage but it still wont move. any ideas phellas???

That how I did it.... xtra long pole!

I tried pusing it, but I pushe myself back

I tried kicking, but I just pushed myself again...

In the end it took 2 of us to get it off, b/c it was on so bloody tight!

So just keep going at it!

Tip: make sure you can remove the filler before you remove the drain plug.

Not recommended to drive down to a workshop without g'box oil when you find out that you couldn't fill it up.
