AX15 Gets HOT

[s14unimog]

that's where you're supposed to put it, not in the cabin. That would be dumb.

I was thinking it was like the sound deading stuff. Thought it went inside.

thats what you get for thinking LOL JK
will look into getting some of that heat shield stuff
AS for the 10W30 SYN thats what I read all on hear about what to put in it....
can you just get GL4 or GL3 75w90 anywhere?
does anyone else think this could be a solution
PS just thought about something does the GL stand for Gear Lube if so would 75w90 Lucas work??? which is the same thing I will put in my diff in about 50 more miles (gear break in)
Thanks again

Don't want to use straight lucas, its stickiness will turn into a foamy mess.
I reccomend redline mt75-90, or redline mtl. I also used a bottle of friction modifier, and it seemed to clear up the 1st gear shift problem, no doubt caused by th p/o using GL-5

Something else to consider. If you run your AX15 in cold temps, say, 32 degrees F or lower, a synthetic lubricant will make a world of difference in shifting.

Even in a diff?
That is the first time I have ever heard anything bad about Lucas
But question was not answered does the GL stand for Gear Lube
