T-20 oil

[PLANTC]

What type of oil should I put in the T-20 in my Wild Wolf. I am not sure what it should take and if I can add some Lucas gear oil. Any help?

No do not put any gear oil in a t-20. It can delaminate your bands and cause very bad things to happen to expensive parts. Atf III is what re t-20 uses. Some people use a limited slip additive or use a full synthetic. If gear oil was used in your t-20 it is best to take it apart to inspect the bands and clean interior components in a parts washer before installing.

Like Drew said, NEVER use gear oil in a T-20. Use one quart of ATF type F. You can add about 4 ounces less than a full quart of the ATF and put 4 ounces of the limited slip differential additive to keep the bands from chattering if need be.

thanks for the help. Gear oil wasn't used in the trans. I am not having any issues with it right now. I just got my 4 stroke conversion done yesterday. Before I start really putting it through it paces. I wanted to change the trans fluid to have an idea on when it was done.

Good idea. Do it right the first time and then you won't have headaches down the road.

Anyone use Universal Hydraulic Tractor Oil? My muskeg uses it in the diff with brake bands.

Only use 1 quart of ATF type F, nothing else.
