tranny and rear end lube - dynabill - 07-08-2013
I am looking to replace 5 sp tranny fluid and rear end (axle) lube. from what i am reading on your pages is that i need to have gl4 (minimum) for the tranny, and gl5 hypoid for the rear end. I just want to confirm this, before I pick up it from NAPA.
also looking to replace all of radiator hoses and accessories, for this vehicle too. i couldnt find any info on 16 valve hoses on the pages either, only 8 valve. Help in this would be great too. Cheers Bill

yes, the boxes need GL4, (some GL5 , is rate for both 4 and 5)
the axles must have nothing less than GL5.
i will make a 16v hose list.
i order a set from gates once and some only fit school bus. the rad hoes was like 3.5' ID? a joke.
ill make 16v suzuki list
but some can use generic, like the heater hose. and to others. ill make that up tonight.

Fixkick,
Did you make up a list of engine hoses? I have a few that seem a bit spongy. It's saying this gates fits a tracker.

But, there are several hoses for the radiator.
thanks,
John

i have a factory hose list.
the gates hoses are ok. and all non formed hoses can be off shelf generic. water hoses.
here is my factory hose list (some are hard to figure out)
