So how much did the gear box take Ryan ?

And how much did the transfer box take ?

And I presume they are both gl4 75/90 ?

Cheers

I just filled them both until oil came out the fill plug, when I was doing it, I filled the gearbox with a cleaner and drive it slowly around the yard then flushed that out too, gets old swarf out and residue

Ohh and both oils are the same for the gear box and trsfr box

Check as I think some of the newer terrano's had different oil in transfer box to that in gearbox could be wrong but just check first
