Eaton locker fluid type?
I just baught an Eaton locker for my 8.8 rear diff, do i have to run the 75-140 full synthetic with modifier or can i go with something like 85 140? and add modifier...

75W140 full synthetic with modifier.

k thanks!

Its an eaton truetrac are you 100% sure because its $50 in fluids here that i dont want to waist.
|
true trac uses gears instead of clutches right? so you dont need the friction modifier.
|
Hold the presses!
http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums...060477&fpart=1 Long read, but food for thought. I think I'd probably run 80W90 dino with no modifier. Maybe you should try to contact Eaton and see what their position is these days. |
The following is from Eaton's website.
http://www.eaton.com/EatonCom/Produc...iteId=EatonCom Eaton Posi What kind of oil should I use? Can I use synthetics? Do I need a friction additive/modifier? Eaton Posi units perform best when using GL4 (or better) mineral/petroleum based gear oil. A four ounce bottle of friction additive/modifier is also necessary for optimum performance. Truetrac What kind of oil should I use? Can I use synthetic? Do I need friction additive/modifier? A quality petroleum/mineral based oil works best in the Truetrac units. We do not recommend synthetic oil. Friction additive/modifier is not required. Detroit Locker What kind of oil should I use? Can I use synthetic? Do I need friction additive/modifier?
