Will 85W-140 GL5 gear oil be ok in my trans/diff?

Posted by Greg on May 13, 2004 at 10:44:33 from (4.227.121.178):

I serviced my 364 diesel trans/rear diff and was told to put 85W-140 GL5 gear oil in. I did it but now wonder if it was the right thing to do. A service manager at an IH dealership gave me the advice but I wonder if 80-90 would have been better or if it really matters at all? The fluid that came out had no water in it from condensation and everything looked fine, I just want my tractor to get the fluids it needs to last as long as possible. Thanks.
