I 'd like to get some fresh oil in my old 8 1/4 rear end. My plan was to pull the rear plate, blast the gears and everything in there with my favorite cleaner (starter fluid) to get rid of all the sludge that's in there.
Then, fill her up with the proper gear oil. Once again I come to the experts for some help.
1. Is this a sound plan of attack? If not, please tell me ..............
2 What's the best oil to use in there? Synthetic?
Thanks!
