MMM Gear Oil

[dmnsmith2]

Can anyone make some suggestions on gear oil fro the RC60 mid mount mower? The manual calls out for SAE 90 API GL5 and I'd like to know a good brand to use. I assume Kubota makes this but like to get some other options. Thanks in advance!

I buy the Valvoline at WalMart, but frankly, the house brand, SuperTech, would likely be just as good?

I assume Kubot makes this ...!

Like other manufactures, Kubota dose not make any oil or lube...
Just about any gear lube will work fine, I usually get a synthetic and change it out whenever it looks like it has any moisture in it or at 2 years... KennyV

Would an 85W 90 work just as well? TIA!

I searched for a while and the best I could come up with was 85/90, it appears to work just fine

I used lucas oil that has 90 wt and gl5 rating. so far all is good.

easy---I use Amsoil Severe Gear 75W-90 gear fluid in my 60" MMM (on BX24). Also in my front diff.

I used it in my old BX22 (when Amsoil fluid was blue) and worked mint..
