Rear cover removal
Hello everyone,
I just removed my rear cover to replace the old as dirt 12 bolt gasket. A couple of questions for everyone... What type of gear oil do I need to put in? Also, how much do I put in? This project seems pretty straight forward. Just put the bolts back on and remove the fill plug and replace the gear oil. Please let me know if I am missing something....

Re: Rear cover removal
While you're there read the # that is stamped into the gear.That way your next question wont be "What gear ratio do I have".
