Description

Overview

The Lucas Oil Synthetic SAE 75W-140 Gear Oil, part number LUC10122, is a pure synthetic gear lubricant with a 75W-140 viscosity grade. It is designed for heavy duty and high performance gear applications where conventional gear lubricants may not hold up, and it is universal fit.

The additive package increases lubricity, which reduces gear noise and supports longer bearing life. The oil stays stable at high temperatures without losing lubricity, and it is suited to limited slip differentials.

Key features

  • Pure synthetic gear oil, SAE 75W-140
  • Special additive package that increases lubricity
  • Reduces gear noise and extends bearing life
  • Designed to hold up at high temperatures
  • Described by Lucas Oil as excellent for limited slip differentials

Choosing a gear oil

Gear oil does more than reduce friction. In a differential or manual transmission it carries heat away from the gears and bearings, and it keeps a film on metal surfaces under heavy load. Viscosity matters because it sets how the oil flows when cold and how well it holds up when hot. A 75W-140 grade is a common choice for axles that work hard, but the right grade is the one your axle is designed for.

Limited slip differentials put extra stress on the clutch packs, so the fluid needs to protect friction surfaces as well as gears. When changing gear oil, look at the drain plug magnet for metal flakes, and check the seals and vent for leaks. Pure synthetic oils tend to keep their viscosity across a wide temperature range, which is useful on trails and during towing.

Questions & Answers

What is the Lucas Oil LUC10122 gear oil viscosity?

It is SAE 75W-140, a pure synthetic gear oil. The part number is LUC10122. It is designed for heavy duty and high performance gear applications.

Is this Lucas gear oil good for limited slip differentials?

It is suited to use in limited slip differentials. Confirm your differential's fluid specification before using any gear oil in a particular axle.

Does this gear oil reduce gear noise?

The additive package increases lubricity, which reduces gear noise and supports longer bearing life. No test figures are included with this product, so these benefits are not quantified here.

Is this gear oil vehicle-specific?

No. It is universal fit, so no specific make, model, year or axle applies. Confirm the year, model and trim that match your vehicle before ordering.

How can I tell if my gear oil needs changing?

Check for a burnt smell, dark or metal-flecked fluid on the magnet, or leaks at the seals and vent. Change the oil sooner after deep water crossings or heavy towing, since both can dilute or contaminate it.

Can this synthetic gear oil be mixed with conventional gear oil?

Mixing is best avoided unless the two oils are compatible. Drain the old fluid as fully as possible before filling, and fill to the correct level at the fill plug before you drive.
