Just don't do what I did and put EP90 in the main box :shock:. Got 200 yards and couldn't get in to any gear. Made allot more work for myself darning it all again after. #-o.  EP90 stinks as well. Could smell it for days

Whereas I ran a B-W T-Box on ep90 for a year with no harm done at all, I even added some oil stabiliser to that and all it did was stop the noise from the front prop/diff coming through the transmission (pre castor correction).
