Rearend oil and pics after lift

[Hit it like a champ]

So i finished the lift today it made the precident pretty big. I am very happy with it. I did loose a very small amount of oil from taking out the axles and it took about 10oz that seem like a lot I probably lost about 2oz anyway this is what i put in there is this the right stuff. Countyline sae30 small engine oil.

That will work, but it does not look like a very dependable brand. But hey, if you are running stock and not running anything more than stock, 30w is fine. If you are upgrading your parts and accessories, then you better think about upgrading the gear lube that helps put all that into motion....

I think this will be fine for the winter I can put gear oil in it before summer. I see it says to jack it Up that must be just so you fit under there right. I would think that you wouldn’t want to change the angle of the rearend when checking.

I am guessing you are meaning from my earlier post in the other thread. See the last point and "yes", it was only to gain access, you lower it while filling it as you have a tube and pump.

Rear End Lube Change:
-22oz's of 85w/90 synthetic rear end grease. Mobil 1 or any good quality type will work fine.
-Jack it up, pull the fill plug which is up the side of the housing. Then pull the drain plug and drain. (check oil for any foreign material)
-Reinstall the drain plug, stick your manual $8 lube pump tube (from Advance Auto Parts) in the fill hole (do not attempt to use the vent hole), lower the cart back level and pump it until it reaches the threads of the fill hole. (22 ounces + or - will get you there)

Agree. You don't want gear oil up here in winter unless your cart is in heat all the time. Batts are already weaker. 5w30 is plenty thick enough when the temp drop.

Yes it would be ok in the winter it lives in a heated garage. Check out this pic before my ride yesterday in about 8” of snow.
