Sooo Polaris guys. Ranger has been swamped need to change oils dont want to use Polaris brand. It calls for Polaris Full Synthetic Gearcase Lubricant (AGL) for the transmission. Could ATF type F be used instead???

Thanks

There isn't a huge difference in price between Polaris oil and the next brand. If you have to, you can use ATF in the front diff, and a synthetic 75-90 gear oil in the rear diff, but I haven't figured out what replaces the transmission.
