This week I undertook the task of changing headers on my 1 ton and installing new rad.
In the process of installing the headers, I discovered they interfered with my PTO on my gearbox.
So naturally I had to drain the gearbox, remove, cover, refill.
Ever since, there seems to be a squeeking in the gear box whenever moving forward.
I bought a five gallon pale of 80w-90 for it and didnt realize u til I got home it was GL5 and I've read that you should only use GL4. But I used it anyway.
When idling the truck sounds fine. Reverse fine. In forward gear and as speed increases, the squeeking increases.
Any input greatly appreciated guys.
