how much oild will i need for my box and diffs on a series 3 just so i know do i buy a couple of 1 liters or a 5 liter bottle.
 
the diffs hold about 1.5 litres each.
donno bout series boxes though.
 
well both diffs and the box all leak so it looks like id be better with a 5 liter bottle then.
 
you'll deffo need more than 5 litres - series has ep90 in the gearbox as well as the transfer box dunt it?

with series seals you wil need infinity oil to fill a series box! but from memory about 7-8L should do axles , box and transfer case, i buy gear oil 25l at a time from my work cause its cheaper that way
 
Nah, they dun't have ter be. If you find somewhere it's ****ing out, do something about it (sort the seal or whatever). If you find wee bits seeping out here & there, nipping bolts up to the correct torque can sort a fair bit. I always find a few loose bolts & leaks on a motor that's new to me, but it dun't take long to sort most of them. ;)
 
main g/box .....1.5ltr
t/box...............2.5ltr
axles
rover.............1.75ltr
