Don't confuse "Gear Box" for "Geared Transmission".

As Caden stated DO NOT put SAE 15W-40 in the transmission!
Your geared transmission must use any universal UDT transmission oil.

The engine can use SAE 15W-40 designated for diesel engines.
Don't use the same stuff you put in your non-diesel cars.

The steering box, front axle can use 80W90 gear oil.
