Oil and Filter
 
What kind of oil do you guys use on the LB7. as well as filter.

Also going to change Front and rear diff. and tranny. what do you think i should use.



For teh regular maint. of this thing how often should the fuel filter be changed?

any other insight would be sweet!

I'm a little biased on what to use:tu: But aside from that, synthetic in the diffs for sure. It's also popular in the tranny(tes-295 spec). The luxury of the 06 and older, you can run either the newer CJ-4 rated oils or stick with the older stuff(harder to find) but it's out there. :w2:
As for fuel filters, most are pretty conservative on this. No one likes a "full" filter. I've seen some change it every 7-10k, but 15-20 is more common.
I change oil once a year so the fuel fitler goes with it.

I use Chevron Delo 400 Syn 5w40 in my rig, usually WIX filters, but im gona try out some fleet guard filters this time

I change my fuel filter with every oil change, its just cheap insurance

Rotella 15-40 with Napa gold or wix filters.
