Welcome to the forum.

If you post the question in the Mud Pit you will get a response as there is a lot more traffic there than here. Good luck BTW

best to use the polaris fluid, (demand drive fluid) or you can use autotranny fluid for the hubs. looks like gl 80-90 for the gear case?


looks like whodeanie got it .

Welcome to Snow and Mud! Fernie is right - you will get a much better response if you post in the Mud Pit Chat. Better yet, to make the info easier for others to find in the future, you can post in the Polaris specific forum in the ATV section.

According to the 2002 owner's manual (looks like 1996-2003 have roughly the same manual), you will need GL5 80-90 Weight Gear Lube. Here's a link to that manual:
