    Is OK to use HD 30 summer Diesel rated and HD 10 winter Diesel rated.. I would not use a non detergent 30 or 10 non rated oil in any Diesel... The 15-40 Diesel rated oil is good for most climates... Most M/F trucks have "use 15-40 oil only" stencilled under the hood... The basic SAE 30 oil...

    Why not just put in a new gasket? It is a standard Spicer tranny.. Same thing for the axles which are Rockwell.. If it is leaking badly, must be overfull or have some light oil in it... Remember to use 90 weight GL1 and only fill it to about a finger knucke below the hole...
