|

Bought a JD 31 auger a couple weeks ago which has a bit of a leak at the gear box. Should probably seek out a new seal for it but for the time being what lube should be put in the gear box? Just 90wt gear oil? |

Most folk are putting in 'JD Cornhead Grease' into most generic gearboxes these days. It's designed to sit like a grease at room temp, but with light heating it works like a 90w gear oil. This lets it lube gearboxes, but not leak out through bad seals.
Agco has a similar product.
I hear Napa and others can get it, but it's not often regularly stocked?
This time of year, any JD ag dealer will have a rack of it up front....
