    Your shift box should be full of grease, dino or synthetic, your choice.

    Oil or grease ?

    If your shiftbox is tight and has no leaks mineral gearoil SAE 90 is great to use , but elsewhere soft grease is recommendable.

    Grease it is. JD Cornhead grease looks like great stuff. I'll be getting a tube of that.
    Thanks, JW

    Yes, but I'm not sure John Deere made a RHD version.
