gear oil for Model A

[redd720]

I am having trouble finding GL-1 gear oil. But i found at TSC, it has 90 weight GL-1 mineral gear oil. Is that right oil for model A? I am not using this tractor for working and pulling. I am using to play around with and joy riding.
Thanks

I think any standard (read cheap) 80-90 wt gear oil will be fine. Check Wal-Mart and others . If it helps, it is what I use for just pharting around, however, when I was farming, I used the same stuff, changed every year. HTH

I used gear oil from CARQUEST. I believe it was 85-90. It is for my 44 A. Hope this helps..

These tractors aren"t that fussy most pullers with stroker cranks run motor oil in the rear simply because they have to cut the wall between crankcase and rear they don"t have any issues but there not drove a lot either. That being said any ole gear oil would suffice

Supposed to be 140w by the book, but lot's of folks using 90w anyway. When I did it, I did notice a bit more gear noise so if that is going to be a sticking point for you, keep looking?

I'm using that same 90wt GL-1 from TSC.

Any 50 or 60wt motor oil is fine .
