[OT] Steering box gear oil.
Sort of OT but I know you guys will know whats what.
I've got a 10 ton Truck and the steering box is up for its 120,000km oil swap. The manual specifies "API GL4" oil for the steering box. As I understand it that does not specify the weight of the oil. I'm putting some 85/140 EPX Castrol oil in the differential. Can I put some of this in the steering box and it would work fine and not create any problems? |
