Default 700 efi maintenance

doing yearly oil change and tranny fluid change and noted that polaris recommends different fluid for, tranny, front, and rear gearcase(s). anyone know if i use polaris AGL gearcase lube (transmission oil) in the frt and rear rather than the (premium demand drive hub fluid), and (atv angle drive fluid) respectively, would this cause problems? the manual says to use 5 oz. in frt and rear. can't see the need to buy three products when 1 qt of the tranny oil would do the job??

i talked to the dealer, he said the front gear case needs the different fluid, the rear gearcase and trans. are the same.

Wrong!

Use the Demand drive in the front diff and the AGL in the trans.
For the rear diff you can use any quaility full sythentic 80w-90 gear lube.

I know I won't stray from the (PPD) Polaris Premium Demand Drive (Synthetic) fluid in the front Differential on my sp700.

Jim is right on. Better check on your dealer for giving out the WRONG info! Could be very costly to YOU!

Jdaddy, Polaris calls for 85-90 gar oil for the rear gearcase. I use synethis in all including the rear. AGL will be way too light in weight for the rear!

thanks for dialing me in, i'll be draining the rear gearcase, and putting the proper fluid in before running around placing treestands up.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
