Am i going to waste my gearbox by doing that guys?
Thnak you for your advices.
No, Just take care of them and they will take care of you.

Oil the shafts and bearings in the gearboxes with light machine oil (NO WD 40) and lube the face of the gears with white lithium grease or similar lube. Seal the TUs off from the rest of the tank at the output shafts by the drive sprockets. Fabricate simple cover for them to keep the lube in while keeping dirt, loose parts and wires out.
