In the LT 77 or R 380 Gearbox use MTF, axles/Transfer box : 75/90w Hypoid oil, engine/filter 15-40 (we use Amsoil on all of these )

Les.... Thank you! Also.... WHat is "MTF"?
MTF=Manual Transmission Fluid.
It's not the same as Dexron ATF.
I use Redline MTL in the gearbox.
For motor oil I used Drydene Dieseall for many years, now owned by Castrol.
Shell Rotella T would be good.

Four wheel drive allows you to get stuck
in places even more inaccessible.

The manual states 7.23 US quarts with a filter change.
It will vary by about a pint depending on if you're using long or short filter.
