124 trans question
 

how much gear oil does a 3 speed 124 rear end call for? while i have the shifter out to repair it i figured i should change the gear oil while i have it apart.:bigthink:

fil it until it comes out the plug on the back of the rear end

ok thats easy enough i looked in the manuals and it called for sae 30 motor oil y not gear oil?

yea, im not sure you can put in hytran or the 30wt or do what i do put in 80-90 gear oil

ill see what the part store has today when i get to town

alright you do that:biggrin2:

transaxle oil
 

I use Rotella HD 30 wt in motor and transaxle. Rear takes 7 pints . As cubcadet says it will just start coming out the fill plug on rear cover, assuming you have correct cover with plug 1/2 way up. Chris

also before i drained the oil i fired it up to move it to make changing the gear oil easier and it wouldnt move when i let the clutch out it stalled out. what would cause this?

:Woo:i had it moving today. its the first time since may!!!!

good greg what was wrong with it and jcsmith is right 7 pints
