Freelander diff... what oil to put in?
I'm after some advice regarding my Mac Worx ZX10r... I've tried searching but it's not returning any results.
What oil do people recommend for a Freelander rear diff in a BEC?
How much oil does the diff take?

ep80 semi or fully synthentic. Comma do some thats reasonably priced and the local halfrauds stock it. You only need 1 litre
editted because i said 75-90 to start with, i got confused with the transferbox in a freelander, sorry too early

Like anyother hypoid diff it needs a Hypoid oil sometimes called an EP oil ie must be GL5 spec.
EP80 or EP90 or a multigrade such as EP75/90 to GL5
