Is there a safe alternative to chaincase oil in the gearbox?

[yamadoo13]

Was wondering if anybody uses anything else besides chaincase oil in their sled. I have always used syn. c.case oil. I know of some dealers that use regular gear oil from a car/truck. Was wondering peoples results. thanks rich

I use royal purple gear lube just cause I had some lying around I haven't pulled teh chain case apart yet from last year but didn't seem to make much diff. Some people even use ATF which frees up some friction but I choose the gear lube.

I have used ATF for years. I even use it in my Pro-Stock 1000 Race sled. Most guys I know use ATF..

here we go again !lol...... i use AMSOIL Series 2000 Chaincase Oil provides superior protection and performance for enclosed chains. Ideal for snowmobiles, ATVs and general equipment. Extreme pressure additives provide extra wear protection. Extends chain life repels water, and inhibits rust, oxidation and foam. Superior low temperature starting, performance and protection.
