    Thanks for the video. I was reading my Hagerty magazine. Read an article about gear lube and found out I was using the wrong gear lube in my 71 FJ40. I went and got the correct gear lube.
    I feel better now seeing your video.

    I'm glad someone sed it lol. I've ran whatever I had in the shop which was usually Valvoline or Napa (same thing)for 45 years. T90 T18 T14 T150 Spicer 18,20 Dana 300 and everything else . NEVER HAD A PROBLEM OF ANY KIND!!!!!!! It's like he sed you will have to rebuild or tear it down for other reasons before the new gear oil will cause any issues with your brass!

    Old EP (extreme pressure) additives were sulfur-based and could eat yellow metals. For years and years the sulfur, if present, has been passivated so that it won't chemically react.

    Old transmissions and transfer cases seem to run on pretty much any modern lubricant. Later model manuals I get leery about, like NV4500's and NSG370. I feel better using the highfalutin lube the manufactures recommend for those ones.

  • @uzifouryoutwosay

    I ran into an issue with the NV4500 in my 01 Cummins powered Dodge where the original oil that was ostensibly safe for the carbon fiber synchros is 32 bucks a quart, and it’s impossible to find. The recommended oil from Mopar is ATF+4, which I ran for several months and had an overdrive bearing and gear failure. I threw a new unit at the truck and the manufacturer recommended 70 w 90 full synthetic, which I ran up until I rebuilt it after 100k miles due to an intermediate shaft and synchro problem. After the rebuild, I’ve continued to use 70 w 90, and it appears that everything the internet had to say was based off rumors from the early 2000’s and nobody actually had real experience on the matter. I’ve found that guys who are worried about stuff like oil ruining something are scared and stupid.

      Nv4500 and other newer manual transmissions have different synchronizers with different oil requirements. This video is only talking about vintage stuff from the 40-70’s

      @@redeyecafegarage7484 No I get it, it’s funny that people are worried about gear oil for 70 year old transmissions, but it’s the same song and dance for new transmissions. Nv4500’s required a specific oil from mopar or acdelco, but since they quit making it Mopar now recommends ATF+4. I ran that for 15k miles and had to re-do my overdrive bearing and 5th gear/countershaft gear. I switched over to 75w90 full synthetic after the shop I bought a reman unit required it. I’ve run that stuff for 200k and it’s not killed my carbon fiber synchros. Frankly I’ve never had a problem with the carbon fiver liner failing on synchros, only the teeth getting worn. The problem is, most people are afraid to rebuild a transmission, or they think they’re made of glass.

    Everybody thinks jeeps are cool at one point. Growing up, many run into a lot of ''jeep people" and decide they don't want to be associated with them, sounds like the oil issue exemplifies this. and i'ts not everybody, but it's a decent amount.
