I am switching my gear oil over to Mobile 1. My question is, will 75w 90 work or do i have to use 75w 80?

you cant use mobil 1 in the gear box it is gl5 if i remember, we need gl3, i use red line synthetic. I put mobil 1 in and had to take it out it will damage the tranny over time . Call mobil like i did they will tell you.
