Gear oil for Trans,transfer example and differentials.

Thinking about using Lucas 75/90 synthetic and run into if information technology reduces the gear racket.
Think it will work or am I wasting money?

I run synthetic  motor oil in all my vehicles and usually get nearly ii miles to the Gallon better fuel mileage. It is proven to run cooler,doesn't intermission down from heat, and is slippier. Have y'all e'er rubbed your fingers together afterward changing your oil. Not very slippery. It notwithstanding is with synthetic. The reason you accept to change it is it still gets dirty. Will it reduce gear noise? probably but fifty-fifty if it doesn't the other benefits are well worth the money. Do not utilize constructed in a new motor or gears as they will not interruption in properly. Later near 3000 miles your good to go. hope that helps.

Amsoil 75/90 synthetic is the only way to go.

Merely especially synthetic.  Constructed gear oil is the all-time thing to
happen to the automotive world in decades.

I run synthetic oil in my engines likewise.

IF there is a downfall with synthetic gear oil information technology's this;
IF y'all bicycle a lot and do alot of water crossings you're
going to observe yourself changing the gear oil (h2o ingestion and condensation)
often and that gets expensive.  That's the but negative Ive ever heard.

Good choice.

Cheers for the communication. But want to run across if it will reduce the noise at highway speeds.
I had not driven a Samurai since 1990 and that one had a big stereo. My current Suzuki does not.
We have been running Royal Royal in a Dodge truck for 50k miles and take seen a minor increase in gas mileage
I've been running Lucas Oil in an onetime GMC and chainsaws with good results.
Saw them at an offshore powerboat race and talked to some reps. Lucas seems to be skillful stuff.
Volition definitely mail service results.

 Brent at trail tough does not recommend synthetics in the sammy t. cases.

I ran mobil one synthetic in mine for a while but it leaked past the seals too much. I put regular gear oil back in it and it stopped leaking.

I do have mobil i in my diffs but had to have it out of the motor due to leaks. I put castrol high mileage in the engine and the leaks stopped.

That is true. If you accept oil leaks they volition get worse with synthetic. Since most sami'southward that I have seen leak oil at the transfercase and distributer its something you will want to consider. Its to expensive to leak it all over the ground. I retrieve that all the diffrent brands are pretty much the same. Amsoil has been around for years. Lucas, redline, royal royal, mobil one are all adept.

That isnt true. I hear this about synthetic all the time.  IF Constructed CAUSES LEAKS YOU HAD Problems YOU NEEDED TO ADDRESS ANYWAYS!
And so address them.  And then use constructed.  I rebuild my tcases before I install them in my rigs.  I have NEVER had constructed leaks.  E'er.  And I
use synthetic in EVERYTHING!!!!!

Funny I had the same problem as Donald and my T instance was new ... So I guess Donald and I are both liars and so huh ? Brent says the same thing as well ? Must be a conspiracy .

Synthetic has its place and its a good product . I run synthetics in most of my rigs . I will not run it in my Sammi  T Cases or Trannys any more . Just maybe I am lying in that location too ?

Seriously man y'all need to mellow out some .

Listen to you. You're the one freaking out here. Conspiracy?  Liars?

Way to put words in my oral fissure!  You must be a democrat!

If your're telling me that synthetic oil F***k's upwards a NEW transfer case and the NEW seals in that transfer instance (and then yeah your nutz)
then why dosent that happen to the engine, transmission, AND THE NEW DIFFERENTIAL SEAL THAT YOU ADDED WHEN Yous
REINSTALLED YOUR DIFFERENTIAL?

HMM?

Await, I know Brent personally.  I consider him my friend.  That dosent mean that he's perfect.  Ive done this to 5 transfer cases that Ive run in four dissimilar
samurais, with NO leaks......

If you ran into leaks with synthetic oil in a rebuilt transfer case yous rebuilt it Incorrect!

My response was quite a bit natural language in cheek ... seriously step away from the keyboard and recall before you type .

I am stating my experiences with rigs I built . I assure yous that when I build something it is to spec and I do not cut corners .

I currently run 10-forty Castrol GTX in the one.3 motor. Mine has a rod knocking a bit and then I stepped to a slightly thicker oil to endeavor and convalesce it. No die.

Anyway, my experience with this little motor is to go equally light as recommended in all areas. The slightest bit of extra drag is noticeable. I was running 85-90W semisyn in the tcase and diff and switched over to M1 75-90 syn terminal weekend. Fabricated a noticeable divergence in seat of the pants performance. The tranny even so has the semisyn in information technology for now. Equally far equally leaks, I don't have any still but it's only been a few days. The tcase is fresh and the rear might be toast anyway. The trans already seeps a fleck so it'll probably stay dino.

I run syn in my tardily model stuff. A 100K+ driveline is a footling risky becasue you might create some leaks or clean something out that should be there. Syn is high detergent. My experience has been that once the leaks beginning they are hard/impossible to stop without replacing stuff fifty-fifty though yous switch dorsum to dino.

Ok, got a question for ya, the FSM highly reccomends 79W90 oil for the diffs, trans and transfer instance...just that is a synthetic weight oil? least you can go in that weight is a blend. So how tin a synthetic oil be bad when the reccomended weight is a synthetic?

Re: Gear oil for Trans,transfer case and differentials.

Respond #22 –
Synthetic oil does not cause leaks...here'south the scoop on synthetic oil:

Dino oil has molecules that are different sizes and shapes O. One thousand.    It is true for everything that is natural that they are not identical in shape or size.

Synthetic oil molecules are all exactly the same  O.Chiliad.

Therefore if you take a leak in something...only the smaller molecules of the Dino oil can pass, the larger ones do not...
That is why leaks seem to grow worse with synthetic oil, considering all the molecules are smaller and exactly the aforementioned.

The best advice is .....if you are planning to switch to synthetic oil, brand sure to ready any leaks earlier hand.

One thing I cant figure out here is why people want to speak of synthetics as a generality.  They are Non all the aforementioned - by whatever ways!  And I will contend that we run across more  SUZUKI transfer cases, transmissions, and diffs than ANYONE or any VENDOR on this lath.  Our first hand experience - using Simply factory Suzuki seals and But NEW bearings - that the Samurai transmission and transfer case, when used on inclines ie: off-road situations will leak past the seals with Mobil ane constructed every bit well equally Crimson line MT90.  Lucas Oil, Royal Purple, when put in the aforementioned exact box will Non leak.  Nosotros have too experienced macerated bearing life with the Mobil ane and Red line oils for vehicles subject to high RPM superhighway miles.  The Valvoline synthetic seems to accept a heart of the route functioning with some leakage and seems to become muddied in advent very quickly.  These are our get-go manus experiences and observations. I am dislocated as to why 1 would  desire to lump all synthetics and thier performance together. And I must say, all experiments aside,  that the performance and durability of the good erstwhile fashioned gear oil that the 1986 Samurai came with 20 years ago has been safe, tried and proven, and is price constructive.

I gotta say , Brent is right about the Mobil one for sure , had a lot of problems with both my trans and tcase when I used their 75w90 gear oil . Switched dorsum to 80w90 Valvoline and haven't noticed whatever wear particles showing up on the drain magnets since , makes me wonder why that particluar oil seems to fail when their other lubricants work so well. The tcase burned a begetting inside the 4.xvi counter gear for no apparent reason on the Mobil i and then the set had to be replaced . You would retrieve with the heat generated on the highway that oil would accept kept those inner bearings lubed better than it did , I nevertheless tin can't explicate it . Besides, the Valvoline dyno oil doesn't seem to darken nigh as quickly either .

My first oil change was on the dealer when I bought mine new in '87.  Afterwards that I ran Castrol GTX 20W-50 until Castrol brought out Syntek.  I had nigh 40,000 miles on it and so and switched to Syntek 5W-l and that 1.three ran 140,000 miles without whatsoever problems until I let it run fashion likewise hot(when I noticed it was overheated it had NO water in it).  Anyway was still running and driving couple months later on but lost ability. No fifth gear and down to 2nd and 3rd for big hills.  I transplanted my 1.6 then for less than a rebuild.  I programme to tear down the i.3 some day and discover the damage, prob. blowed head gasket, rings lost tension, warped valves, or who knows(the pinch was down to the 130psi range on all four).

So I know from experience Syntek 5W-50 is d**m good stuff.  I ran that 1.3 to redline litterally
thousands of times and drove it like I stole it from new.  Speaks very loftier of Suzuki's build quality.  Likewise had weber and DT header on it since '88 and most 8000 miles or and then, so it had bit more stock power thru 15 years of hard apply.  Can't nobody tell me a ane.three ain't tough.

Also I regularly pulled and notwithstanding do with the 1.6 a trailer with a four-wheeler and lots of army camp gear.

Also not-synthick 75W-90 gear oil is available in my area.

Castrol now has Syntek in a 5W-twoscore and I plan to switch to that for maybe a mileage increment.

It's a semi-synthetic 75W-ninety GL-iv only gear oil specifically for manual transmissions.  According to the tech specs it has a 100C viscosity rating similar to that of standard 75W-90 gear oil.  Thinking this might be a good choice for transmissions used in hotter climates where the Synchromesh fluids are a little likewise sparse.

Also, just for giggles today I put a temperature probe on the side of my transmission.  On the drive to work it got upwardly to near 57C or 135F, which is hot enough to be uncomfortable to touch simply nowhere near the max working temp for the oil.  My bulldoze to work is probably pretty average, nearly 25-30 minutes with an average of near 30MPH, max of nearly 50MPH.  It took twenty minutes or so to get up to temp.  Air temp was virtually 72F.  Right at present I'm running Valvoline Synchromesh oil in a freshly rebuilt trans (new bearings and synchros).  The shifting is like shooting fish in a barrel (not notchy) simply in gear information technology does audio a flake clattery.  Hoping the thicker fluid might quiet it downwards a scrap.

 Good thought putting a temp probe on information technology.

The new fluid showed up early so I got to put information technology in earlier I left today.  First off I establish out why the manual sounded noisy.  Turns out the fluid level was quite a scrap low.    This was surprising since there was none on the garage floor where it'south parked, so it must only exist leaking while driving.  It seemed to be leaking out of the pocket-sized spiral next to the filler plug.  So after I drained it I cleaned upwards the threads and put some sealer goop on it.  Hopefully that will stop the leak.  Volition demand to keep an center on it though.

Anyway the new fluid feels a little thicker than the valvoline synchro that came out, but all the same a bit thinner than regular 75W-90 GL-5 dinosaur squeezings.  It has an interesting scent, almost similar citronella.  The bottle has this cool pull out spout thing that actually works really well, even if it is kind of over-engineered (because Germans).  I put in exactly i.3L, which is what the normal fill up volume is for the trans.  Filling from the superlative is then much easier than using the stupid filler pigsty.

Driving impressions:
The noise is definitely less, although that probably has more to do with having the correct fluid level to start with.  The shifting is pretty much the aforementioned equally with the Valvoline synchromesh, perchance just a hair faster to engage.  Trans temp today got upwardly to 60C/140F.  Air temp was effectually 75F then no pregnant change at that place.  Tomorrow I might endeavor calculation another 100mL and encounter what happens.

Today I added about 225mL of fluid to the trans across the original 1.3L.  Honestly I'thousand not certain I tin can tell the difference.  It may be just a hair quieter when it's cold merely later it warms up it sounds the same.  At this point I think I'll keep it and but watch to make sure it doesn't leak out.  I'm notwithstanding a little concerned about the fill and drain plugs.  They're new plugs only the seals don't seem that great.  Hopefully tightening them upward will be enough.  I suppose I should check the torque spec for those.
