Hi list
        I picked up a thread regarding the recommended oil for diffs and
gearboxes, this same conversation came up at one of our club meetings. The
story goes that any gear oil without GL5 printed in the bottle will attack
phosphor bronze bushes. I checked my Hypoid at home and it is EP80, GL4. Is
this O.K or should I replace diff. oil with something else.
