Default Rear differential fluid for Brute Force 750..

I have been searching up and down for te rear differential fluid for my BF750. Ive tried Pep Boys, Tractor Supply, and my local Kawasaki dealer....noone sells it. I even went into the back at the Kaw dealer to see if I could get a soda bottle full for $10 and the tech said he didnt know where they got it and he didnt have enough to spare. I have the different names written down just not in front of me....any ideas?
Thanks!

Buy what you need at a John Deere dealer. It's called HyGard. and it works great. Costs about $10 gal. Got it in mine.

this is from Nyroc's website:
The rear diff takes a special lubricant called Mobil 424. You should not put anything else in unless you are sure it is a substitute. The dealer sells it in a kawasaki labeled 1qt bottle, and it is really mobil 424.

You can also get it at http://www.sniderpetroleum.com/mobil.html.

I AM really sure it's a substitute, and it works great. The special fluid is for the wet brake system, not the ring & pinion gears; they could care less. The Brute uses the same system that tractors use. (wet brakes) The John Deere HyGard does fine. Beats getting ripped off at the Kawi dealer.

go to an oil supply depot or bulk station and they can cross mobil 424 to an equivalent oil in there catalogue.

Or you can find a Kawi dealer who knows what is going on and see if he has part number K61030-004, Kawasaki Wet Brake oil. It is $5.25 per quart.

Incredible! I ordered the 2.5 gallon jug of Mobilfluid 424 from MSCDIRECT.COM at about 3:30 on Wed. I received it at 12 noon on Thursday!! Today I got their "Big Book" catalog in the mail that I think contains everything....

"Claudia" at MSC had some of the best customer service skills I have yet to encounter. I am impressed.
