Which oil to use in a Warn 8274 high mount

Post by hzj75 »

I read on the Warn website to use a 30W (non detergent) oil

is there any perticular oil (brand and what type is it called) that can be used????

Adding the Moreys is a good idea as it leves a layer of lube on the top parts and they are less prone to rust.
