Re: G50 Gearbox Oil Level

Dimi, just grabbed this info that Lynn L posted some time back.

"It seems that best way to get it at the right level, is to pull (or loosen) one of the output flanges and fill until the oil leaks out of the opening. (retorque to 19-22 ft.lbs. for '72+) This will get enough oil in the gearbox to adequately oil the diff gears/clutches (the ring gear will dip into the oil and spray the pinion at much lower levels.)"

It looks like your level is higher than that from the photo.

Not sure of the consequences of this.
