LSD Oil is recommended for Air Lockers - perhaps Ezi-Lockers would appreciate the same sort of stuff?

I used a semi synth oil with a decent helping of moreys (that roughly the viscosity of cool honey goop) made a difference to the way it operated ..

I was advised not to use LSD oil by someone but they didn't suggest one that I should use. :?

i use caterpillar 85w-140, same for the gearbox and transfer case , i run an ez-locker in the rear as well and it works fine (but i get it free :lol: )
i believe the spec is 90w diff oil in the zook manuel .
if its worth doing do it intensly , better still do it with MADPASSION
