Gear oil question

super99 · Sep 27, 2013

I was given about 30 gallons of Permagear EP 220 from the feed mill I used to work for. Can I use this in place of 80w90 gear oil. It is quite a bit thinner than the 80w90 I'm used to,I have bought 2 gallon jugs at Farm & Fleet that is supposed to be 80w90 and it's quite thin. They used it in the pellet mill gear boxes. I'm wondering if I can use it in the rear ends of my 1850's, Jd 70, 6600 transmission and final drives. thanks, Chris

Don"t know if you can use it in the rear ends of your tractors but this is what I came up with from an old chart.

This info is free, so you get what you pay for...

Amoco Permagear EP220. Gear Oil, SAE90, Extreme Pressure.

I would do a little more digging to be sure, before you dump it in anything.
