I am working on one of these and I cannot figure out how the front differiential is lubricated. It seems to have to have a dry clutch but nothing to let the ring gear to run in oil. Can anyone help?

The Gp4wd has a wet clutch, the oil in the transmition flows over the wall into the front compartment by the clutch and when the engine is running it slings oil on the differential and back into the main transmition case. The transmition gears use the same oil as the engine but i usually put 15-40 oil in the transmition. It will take 5-6 gallons of oil. When the transmition is up on oil you can take the square cover off the right side by your leg when sitting on the seat, the oil should be about 1 inch deep in by the shifting rods. This is where you fill the transmition through the square cover. There is a small 3/8 inch drain plug on the bottom of the bellhousing directly under the flywheel it should be drained everyday before you start the tractor. Usually you get cruddy grime and water out but not much if it is drained regurlarly. hope this helps
