I'm putting my bandsaw back together after a repair (broken gear shaft),

I'm guessing that 85w-140 is going to be just fine, but I wanted to
bring it up before I put it in.

Thoughts?

If there are any farm stores in your area, they will carry it.


Thanks Paul, I had already tried all of them. I found an old post
online with NAPA part numbers, and my local NAPA was able to order it
with that part number. It's a Sta-Lube product, and the part numbers are
SL24228 (quart), SL24238 (gal) and SL24258 (5 gal).
