Title: help with my 2000 polaris 4x4 magnum 325 Post by: Ticked on May 31, 2011, 06:46:04 PM What type of gear oil do i use for the front and rear differential are they different or do you use the same for both?

Using different type of oils or mixing them has been know to add to problems! Please call the Polaris dealer they will tell you what to use!
