Changing gearbox & transfer box oils, transfer box is ep80 gear oil which is done and I have changed the main gearbox oil with ATF, but what about the extension to the gearbox? It has a filter (which I have changed) and a fill point, my question is do I fill this with ATF too??

Just re-fit the strainer/filter & fill up the box as normal, 2.6 ltrs.

So the extension box takes about a litre & the main box I have done took just over 1.5 litres?
If I had filled from the extension box instead of the main gearbox it would of taken the 2.6 litres I'm guessing?

LT77 gearbox oil change

LT77 gearbox oil change. Here's how Ah did it;) Firstly ah went for a wee drive to warm up the oil. Then Ah removed the filler plug (above the main drain plug) as ah didn't want to find ah couldn't get it out afterah drained the box! ;)..... it's a square plug but ye can get a socket on...

They both fill from the same gearbox filler/level plug.
