Gearbox Fluids

Post by gregtexas » Sun May 31, 2020 9:47 pm

Been doing some reading and there seems to be a mixture of oil and grease in the gearbox.
Any idea what owners use nowadays?
Thanks for any info.

There are a few suppliers with the semi-fluid grease ep-00 or many will use a homemade mixture of 30wt oil and grease. Many of the British Arielists do up a mixture themselves while I have found an ep-00 supplier in Canada.
