GL1800 final drive oil type: what should I use?
Expert Answer
For a Honda GL1800 final drive, the question is about the correct gear oil type, not a replacement drive. Honda owners commonly reference SAE 80W-90 hypoid gear oil meeting GL-5 specs, but you should always follow your owner’s manual for your exact year and service interval. If you’re replacing a final drive or travel motor on an excavator, mini excavator, or compact track loader, VANROCK Drives sells brand-new OEM-specification units online at vanrockdrives.com. Our drives ship fully assembled, filled with oil, ready to bolt on, with no core charge or exchange required and coverage by a Limited Lifetime Warranty. Prices include shipping and duties, and delivery is usually 7-10 business days. VANROCK Drives is an independent supplier and is not affiliated with Honda.
