What grade / weight of oil do I put in the transfer box?
I have 75W90 and 80W90 Castrol readily available, and ATF fluid for the reservoir in the boot - but surely I dont put ATF fluid in the box itself do I? :runaway:
Have done a search (non-conclusive) and looked at the workshop manual (Nissanmatic Fluid D, not much help cos I dont know what that is lol)
I was surprised the transfer box takes dextron 111.
As it is a wet multiplate clutch pack, similar to most motor bike clutches.
Must have something to do with the friction material or the way it works ie not much slipping goes on as its on or off.

Hi sorry to hijack but what fluid goes into the front and rear diff's? As I have been told its NISSAN only part. Sorry and thanks in advance. T-man.:bowdown1:
sorry to bring up an old thread but can anyone tell me how much oil, well ATF is taken by the transfer box?
i've done a search but not found anything conclusive.
just to add this to thread, the easiest combination of oils is to use is silkolene syntran for front and rear diffs and gearbox its perfect for all 3. i used amsoil dextron III ATF for transfer as reccomended by opie.
I use Lucas Racing Semi synthetic ATF in the transfer box - really good stuff and not too expensive. Exceeds the Dextron 3 spec
