RE: trans oil

The recommendation is to keep it dry. That's one part that I've had no problems with in over a year. The Earthquake tranny seems pretty tough.

RE: Earthquake 3.5

just remembered that your Earthquakes have a 2-speed tranny so you only have a front and rear differential. The 2-speed trannys should be kept dry as far as I know. Only the diffs need the oil. Some...
