zmarrott Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) does anyone know what fluid goes in the 5 speed dual range 4wd manual transmission? its out of an 88 GL. i accidentally spilled most of the fluid while the transmission was disconnected.

turbosubarubrat Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) 75w90 is what factory recommends i'm running carquests 85w140 in mine right now. Edited July 31, 2015 by turbosubarubrat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccrinc Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 75w90 is what factory recommends i've running carquests 85w140 in mine right now. That's pretty heavy for your transmission. I've bought the 75w-multi at NAPA several times. Works great. Subaru needs a lighter weight fluid than 90 weight. Emily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

987687 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 75w-90 is fine, just make sure you get a GL-5 rated gear oil otherwise your diff will be destroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
