A good quality 80w90 gear oil will do the trick. Castrol or other leading brands will be perfect for road use, redline or silkolene for constand track use.

You know you don't have to go near the gear oil to change the clutch though right?

Does it not run out when you take the propshaft out?

Just seperate the propshaft in the middle and leave it in the box. Thats what I do. Even if I'm changing the oil I'll still leave it in and drain the oil properly when it back in as you won't get even half of it out through the prop outlet.

or just drain the box first pull the prop out make it way easyer than haveing it hanging out the back!!!
