For gearbox and diff we recommend Silkolene Syn 5 75w-90.

You can also use Silkolene Boa 90LS for diff only applications.

I usually use Redline Heavy Duty Shock Proof for the diff and g/box.

Engine oil is not the right stuff. Get it replaced asap if you want it to last.

Indeed, 10w-40 is closer to the mark
