Defender R380 gearbox, transfer case and diffs.

What do you like to use that is locally available - can tire, lordco, T and T etc.

I know there of official LR recommendations, but those are not always readily available.

Thanks!

I have been using Klondike gear lubricants. Avail at Napa. Great product at a great price.

Thanks. They were on my radar and they’re budget friendly.

Do you use KLONDIKE SAE 75W-90 GL-5 Full Synthetic for the diffs and transfer and KLONDIKE SAE 75W-80 GL-4 Synchromesh for the gear box?

I used the GL5 in my diffs. And the full synthetic auto trans oil as I have 4hp22 transmission.

I take it that the gear oil for the diffs is ok to use in the transfer case?
