2002 KJ with OME Lift. 245/75/16 tires.

With larger tires does anyone run the heavier 85W/140 gear oil up front??
Plan on using Lucas Dino.
Thx

What he said! I just run straight Dino 85w140 in mine, no mixing. No issues even in the frigid temps.

Change it regularly also.
Yes, common sense,
BUT we all know about common sense these days LOL
I did a tune up, oil change etc on a 06 few weeks back
Asked when fluids were all changed
This guy bought it new, 148,000 miles
original plugs ( burnt up like Cousin Mike after New Years )
Oil changehad been every 20,000 miles ( sad )
transmission, diffs, transfer case never had been touched
Customer thought everything was life time

Even if it doesn’t need to be said, someone needs to hear and understand it. ;)
