Until it comes back out the filling hole

But seriously, if you get 5l it will do them both and the transfer box, can't remember exactly the amount off hand but I'm sure someone with a manual will give a more exact amount, think its around 1.2L-1.4L

According to my book it's:

GL-4 SAE 75/90 for the gearbox and transfer box

API GL-5 hypoid 80/90 for the diffs

Capacities = gearbox 1.3lts and transfer 1.13lts
Diffs = front 1.65lts and rear is 1.35lts

As mentioned on a diff thread, use GL-4 for the gearbox as GL-5 doesn't do it (or the driver) any favours. So, 2 different types of oil.

Unless you use this

www.morrislubricantsonline.co.uk/lodexol...thetic-gear-oil.html

Quoted as being suitable for API GL 1-5 (guessing because its SS?)
It can also replace 80W 90 in the diffs!

Don't buy off that site... they are hugely expensive compared to my local seller
