Had the local mechanic change the diff oil today at 33,000 km ( and look at diff bush etc etc ). His verdict on the oil was that it was VERY black. Replaced with Castrol SAF XA. Seems to bear out with a few other threads along these lines.regardsStevei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 19/11/09 08:36 PM Share Posted 19/11/09 08:36 PM For anyone else, try using the nulon diff and gearbox treatment. If it works towards a 30% service life increase in a 100 tonne dump truck, it sure as hell will help with near on 600 Newton meters being thrown at it through a differential...
