DIFFERENTIAL
Multigrade gear oil meeting MIL-PRF-2105E:
85W140 is recommended for use in the Meridor
drive axle. This lubricant performs well over a
broad temperature range, providing good gear
and bearing protection in a variety of climates. If
temperature drops below 10°F (-12°C), 80W90
should be used, and below -15°F (-26°C),
75W90 should be used. In extreme conditions or
for better performance, full synthetic gear oil
should be used. For vehicles equipped with the
ZF A-132 drive axle, use Chevron Multigear oil.
POWER STEERING RESERVOIR
Use Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)
Dexron-IIE or Dexron-III for this system.
