Post by: jjsaul on September 11, 2007, 10:54:38: most transfer boxes take EP90...but check before putting some in.

these kinda details should be in the haynes manual if someone has one to hand?

Post by: ChrisV8 on September 11, 2007, 12:36:14: ATF in both, or use Difflock Evo in the LT77 but the BW needs ATF. :lol:

Post by: Rainbird on September 11, 2007, 15:24:43: Borg-Warner uses ATF.

The Haynes guide has an error in it stating that EP90 goes in a Borg-Warner box. I pointed this out and they will correct in the next edition if there is one

My copy of the RAVE CD specifies ATF Dexron IID
