V drive oil

« **on:** May 01, 2012, 02:31:44 PM »

Does anyone know what sort of oil is good for v drives? I'm looking at a full synthetic gear lube from valvoline. Something pretty thick I'm assuming. Like a 90w or should I use a 75w-80w?

Now just wait till they tell you how to change it. Stupid no drain plug having V- drives.

Call Rex Marine. Mike will take care of you and he has the oil in stock. I forget what it's called something like lubricating engineers oil. Good stuff. That's what I run and a lot of other vdrive guys run
