Thanks to all for the replies I received on this topic. It seems as though straight 90W grade is the one to go for. I have also been advised never to use the...

Thanks Buzz, I'll see if I can find some in Bahrain, I must admit, the transmission is noisy, even compared to my Series III Military Spec Land Rover! Cheers, ...
If you add some STP to the trans it will run quieter and shift easier. Plus, if you put large rubber bushings between Jeep frame and differential on the bolt,...
Right ya are Stu I bought those rubber dampners that Franks Surplus sells and was amazed at the difference, also helps in isolating the diff noise so you can...
I just used rubber bushings for shocks that I bought at Auto Zone. I used the wide ones. It is amazing the other noises you hear with them installed. "Stu" ...

Thanks Les, Yea I'm in the early stages. I teach in a high school and this project will keep them busy and interested for quite a while. I'm trying to get...

Today I took my Encore M-151 clone to the gas station to be greased and have trans and differential fluids checked. MISTAKE. Mechanic removed what he thought...
Yep that is the big no no! A gear has dropped and I believe the only way to fix it is to tear the transmission down. Which means removal, repair and replace....

Not to worry. I did the same thing when I first got mine. I unscrewed the wrong bolt and it fell down to bottom of the pan. Take off the top cover (first...
