    I’m planning on using the 7590 for the front diff and t case.

    the 8090 for the rear diff.

    is this a good plan? Also are these oils good? It’s all I can find here in lebanon.

    also, there used to be a gas station that would take my used oil but they disappeared.
    This is a third world country and they don’t care about these things. Is there any way I can dispose of my old oil on my own safely? Thanks.

    Pour it back into the containers and give it to somebody who needs an oil change. Or toss it in the dump.

    Fluid looks good. Can use the same fluid in all 3 diffs.

    is there a shop around you that can take the oil? Some of them use old oil as fuel for a heater

    Im searching around for people to take it. I’m sure I’ll find something.

    which one would I use for all 3?

    I read in another thread to do it this way for better mileage.

    Where ever you bought the oil has to have the means to dispose it. It’s part of the taxes and levy’s

    Personally Id run the same in all 3 just to make it easy. The bottle on the left says it meets GL4 and 5. I think 3rd gens call for GL4 in the t-case iirc?

    My family lives here. Been in Texas most of my life so I decided to come back and be with them before they get too old. Brought my truck with me.

    got here a week before the port blast lol. I was literally there that morning picking up my new C4 fabrication bumpers, but they didn’t let me take them due to some paperwork issues. I left the port and 4 hours later the explosion happened.

    believe it or not, my bumpers survived the blast with only some scratches. Had them powder coated.

    this was a week after it happened.

    Holy shit dude that is a crazy story! Glad you got out of there alive. How the hell did you even find the bumpers post-explosion?

    thanks.

    no idea, the people at the port did. Took them 3 months but I eventually got them.

    That’s the day I got them. Kinda banged up but still fine. You can see the silos at the top right.

    Well those bumpers are officially bomb proof! I guess Texas to Beirut isn't too big of a change. Just smaller guns and cooler weather haha

    lol tell me about it.

    guns are so much more expensive here.

    paid 3500 for a Springfield xd subcompact 9mm. Got the same one in Texas for 500

    Still thinking about it.
    It's interesting that you can't find the 'right' way to dispose of the oil. I wonder what people there do with it. Dump it in the street? Maybe oil changes just aren't that big of a deal to them? What does your family do with their oil?
